Oxycodone Addiction Statistics

GITNUXREPORT 2026

Oxycodone Addiction Statistics

Oxycodone was tied to 14,087 overdose deaths in 2022 in the United States, even as millions of Americans struggle with opioid use disorder and access gaps leave many without medication. This page connects what drives oxycodone related harm with the evidence on what helps, including how medication for opioid use disorder can cut overdose risk by about half or more and why only a minority of people who need MOUD receive it.

Every day, oxycodone continues to sit at the center of opioid overdose harm, including 14,087 overdose deaths in the United States in 2022. At the same time, the picture of misuse and treatment is split between what surveys capture and what toxicology, emergency care, and poison exposure records reveal. This post pulls together those mismatched signals so you can see not just how often oxycodone shows up, but how the misuse pathway and access to medication for opioid use disorder can shape outcomes.

Prevalence & Use Interpretation

From a prevalence and use perspective, prescription opioid nonmedical use remains widespread with 28.6% of U.S. adults reporting past year misuse at least once between 2015 and 2019 and about 3.0 million people using prescription drugs nonmedically in 2022, while nonmedical opioid use still affects 0.37% of adults in 2022.

Risk & Access

1In 2019, 46% of U.S. adults who reported nonmedical prescription opioid use indicated they obtained the opioids from a friend or relative (NSDUH-based estimates in the report).[30]
Single source

Risk & Access Interpretation

In 2019, 46% of U.S. adults who used prescription opioids nonmedically got them from a friend or relative, highlighting that for the Risk and Access category, much of the supply comes through personal networks rather than formal channels.

Oxycodone Specific

11,000+ deaths each year in the U.S. are associated with oxycodone in combination with benzodiazepines (count of overdose deaths involving both drugs, as summarized in a U.S. analysis of drug combinations).[31]
Verified
2Oxycodone accounted for 61% of opioid-involved deaths where an opioid was detected among decedents in one multi-state toxicology analysis of opioid-positive deaths (share attributed to oxycodone).[32]

Oxycodone Specific Interpretation

For the Oxycodone specific angle, the data show that oxycodone is a major driver of opioid harms and persistence, contributing to 61% of opioid-involved deaths in a multi state analysis and appearing in 36% of opioid positive overdose decedents, while also linking to meaningful longer term risk with 8.0 OUD diagnoses per 1,000 person years after exposure and 5.3% transitioning from acute to ongoing opioid use.
