  • More than half of the 4.2 million Americans who misused prescription opioids during 2012‒2014 were binge drinkers.
  • Drinking alcohol while using opioids increases the risk of overdose and death.
  • Widespread use of effective community-based strategies for preventing binge drinking—such as regulating the number of places that sell alcohol in any given neighborhood—could reduce opioid misuse and overdoses involving alcohol.
