“It’s a cultural problem, not a clinical one,” and addiction specialists said they’re noticing a surge in prescribed painkillers.
In 2012, painkiller prescriptions filled at retail pharmacies more than doubled between 1999 and 2012, and experts said doctors prescribed more than 60 million prescriptions to children and teens in 2012.
The CDC said the biggest increase in kids prescribed painkillers — more than 80 percent — is in the past five years, which is why experts worry about addiction.
“It’s not that long ago that parents and kids were comfortable that if you gave Vicodin to a child you wouldn’t give them enough to kill them,” said Dr. Steven Carlson, chief medical officer at the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.
Withdrawal symptoms from taking too many painkillers can include vomiting, hallucinations, agitation, seizures and seizures, which can lead to death.
Carlson said parents have to ask doctors a lot of questions about the risks of opioids, like the risk of addiction and overdose, as well as the benefits of painkillers for their child.
“Doctors need to be careful what they prescribe,” said Carlson.
Dr. Shernaz Boughner, a child and adolescent psychiatrist, said she thinks there are a lot of factors that can lead to addiction, but experts agree that the combination of prescribing painkillers to children and teens and making them easily available in communities, especially ones with higher poverty rates, can contribute to increased rates of abuse and addiction.
