Overdose Burden in Kentucky

CDC age-adjusted drug overdose death rates show Kentucky went from 53.2 per 100,000 in 2022 to 48.0 per 100,000 in 2023, a year-over-year change of -9.8%. CDC classified this as significant decrease.

Kentucky ranked #7 of 50 states among all states for overdose mortality in 2023.

Kentucky ranks in the top 10 states for 2023 overdose mortality based on age-adjusted rates.

Drug Categories

Which Drug Categories Drive Overdose Deaths?

CDC 2023 state rates by drug category (per 100,000): any opioid at 38.1, synthetic opioids (excluding methadone) at 35.0, psychostimulants at 21.2, cocaine at 6.8.

The highest reported category in Kentucky 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 Kentucky had 55.9 opioid prescriptions per 100 persons in 2024. Kentucky is ranked #6 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 14.0% in 2021, ranking Kentucky #48 of 50 states among all states.

Among adults who binge drink, the median number of drinks per episode is 5.8, with the 75th percentile at 9.2 drinks (2022 data).

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

Priorities

Practical Priorities for Kentucky

Maintain strong naloxone distribution and rapid linkage to medication treatment after nonfatal overdose events.

Strengthen opioid prescribing stewardship, including PDMP checks and non-opioid pain management pathways where appropriate.

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.
