“Statistics show that 70% of children who abuse prescription drugs get them from family or friends.” County Executive Mangano

•“Admissions for alcohol abuse have always represented the largest number of admissions, but have been steadily decreasing. •The number of admissions for heroin and prescription drugs as a primary substance of abuse has increased over the last several years.• Admissions for opioids alone have increased by 60% between 2007 and 2010. •Admissions for prescription drugs including Xanax and OxyContin, and other opioids such as Vicodin and Percocet, have all increased across all the different services in Nassau County. •There were 747 admissions in 2007, that number increased to 1,356 in 2010, an increase of 82%. •Admissions for OxyContin alone increased 160% during the same time period. •Admissions to Crisis Services, which represent the highest level of care in the county, for OxyContin increased 250% from 80 admissions in 2007 to 281 in 2010. •Of particular concern is that the number of admissions of young adults in the 19-26 age groups has significantly increased. •These admissions place even more importance on prevention efforts aimed towards the younger population still in middle and high school and to engage parents and communities in prevention activities.”

Nassau County

•Recent research demonstrated that it may have advantages to naltrexone because there is:

no risk of liver toxicity, higher biologic activity than naltrexone longer acting.

•Dr. Barbara Mason's research showed that patients treated with nalmefene during a 12-week trial were 2.4 times less likely to relapse from alcohol than those treated with a placebo
