Overdose Data

Overdose Burden in Iowa

CDC age-adjusted drug overdose death rates show Iowa went from 15.3 per 100,000 in 2022 to 14.9 per 100,000 in 2023, a year-over-year change of -2.6%. CDC classified this as no statistically significant change.

Iowa ranked #48 of 50 states among all states for overdose mortality in 2023.

Iowa is in the lower 10 states for 2023 overdose mortality rates, but ongoing prevention remains important.

Drug Categories

Which Drug Categories Drive Overdose Deaths?

CDC 2023 state rates by drug category (per 100,000): any opioid at 8.4, synthetic opioids (excluding methadone) at 7.0, psychostimulants at 7.3, cocaine at 1.2.

The highest reported category in Iowa is Any opioid.

These drug-specific categories overlap in CDC mortality reporting and should not be added together.

Prescribing

Opioid Prescribing Environment

CDC state dispensing data show that Iowa had 31.8 opioid prescriptions per 100 persons in 2024. Iowa is ranked #33 of 50 states among all states. The 50-state median is 35.5 prescriptions per 100 persons.

High prescribing rates indicate sustained opioid exposure in the population and reinforce the need for careful prescribing practices, patient education, PDMP use, and non-opioid pain options where clinically appropriate.

Alcohol

Alcohol Binge-Drinking Indicators

CDC alcohol data show an adult binge-drinking prevalence of 23.2% in 2021, ranking Iowa #3 of 50 states among all states.

Among adults who binge drink, the median number of drinks per episode is 5.9, with the 75th percentile at 9.4 drinks (2022 data).

Alcohol indicators help quantify addiction risk beyond illicit and prescription drugs.

Priorities

Practical Priorities for Iowa

Sustain prevention gains and keep overdose response coverage in place to prevent reversals in trend.

Continue responsible prescribing safeguards while monitoring local pockets with higher opioid exposure risk.

Include alcohol screening and brief intervention in routine care and behavioral health settings.

Improve treatment navigation through 988, FindTreatment.gov, and local referral partnerships to reduce delays in care.
