Overdosis
Døde ved overdosis i USA fra 1990 til 2017. Den største stigning er sket ved indtagelse af fentanyler.[1]
Overdosis (OD) betegner indtagelsen af et rusmiddel, eller et andet stof, i større mængder end hvad der er anbefalet eller normaltvist praktiseret. En overdosis betragtes i vid udstrækning som skadelig og farlig, da det kan resultere i døden.
