'Almost seven percent of these patients had new, persistent use at least three months after the initial prescription and almost six percent had an opioid abuse diagnosis,' said lead author Dr Alan Schroeder clinical professor of pediatrics at Stanford'That's pretty alarming.'Findings showed that the youngest patients, between ages 16 and 18, were more likely to have persistent opioid use than the oldest patients between ages 22 and 25. In addition, female patients were more likely than male patients to be persistent opioid users.For future research, the team wants to examine other forms of treating pain after wisdom tooth extractions, and if the extractions themselves are necessary. One proposed solution from the researchers for limiting opioid exposure is to use non-opioid alternatives such as long-acting local anesthesia or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. 'I think we should ask, number one: why are we prescribing such a high quantity of opioids so frequently?' said Dr Schroeder.'And number two: are all the procedures that are driving these opioid prescriptions necessary?' he said.The study come on the heels of new figures from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which found that drug overdose deaths soared by 10 percent in 2017 topping 70,000.It means that, in the last 20 years, the overdose death rate has increased nearly four-fold, from 6.1 deaths per 100,000 people in 1999 to 21.7 last year.
