While previous studies have looked at drug poisoning related deaths in broad strokes, this is the first study to examine them on the county level across the entire U.S. Drug poisoning is now the leading cause of injury death in the U.S. and has increased by more than 300 percent over the last three decades. Almost 90 percent of poisoning deaths can be attributed to illicit or licit drugs, with prescription drugs accounting for the majority of drug overdose deaths. According to reports from the National Survey of Drug Use and Health, about 2.1 percent of Americans-or roughly 5 million people-have used prescription painkillers non-medically in the past month.
