For purposes of developing WSHA WSMA Opioid Prescribing Report metrics, the following medications tracked in the Prescription Monitoring Program database were included and counted as “opioid prescriptions”:

Other medications, used primarily to treat opioid use disorder, were excluded from analysis:

Opioid Liquid and Syrup Conversion Assumptions:
Solutions are given orally which lowers the dose efficacy (e.g. 30mg PO = 10mg IV) 1 dose = 5 MEDS = 1 vicodin 5mg tablet Morphine 10MG PO = 10 MED Oxycodone 5 mg PO = 7.5 MED (thus 3.65 is equivalent) Hydrocodone 5MG PO = 5 MED Hydromorphine 1mg PO = 4 MED (thus 1.25 is equivalent) Codein 35MG PO = 5 MED Meperidine 100mg PO = 10 MED
