Data years used: 2021-2024. Last updated February 28, 2026.
CDC age-adjusted drug overdose death rates show North Carolina went from 41.8 per 100,000 in 2022 to 33.7 per 100,000 in 2023, a year-over-year change of -19.4%. CDC classified this as significant decrease.

North Carolina is in the middle range of state overdose mortality rates in 2023.
CDC 2023 state rates by drug category (per 100,000): any opioid at 28.4, synthetic opioids (excluding methadone) at 26.8, psychostimulants at 10.8, cocaine at 12.3.
