About Prescription Drug Safety Lessons

These digital lessons, powered by Everfi, educate students about the potential dangers of misusing prescription medications, including fentanyl. The evidence-based curriculum explores the impact misuse can have on teens' physical and mental health, relationships, communities, and futures.

Suggested: Grades 8-12

Students, on average, demonstrated a 39-percentage point increase in drug safety knowledge, after completing Prescription Drug Safety lessons.

Still, accidental deaths are on the rise, with many caused by overdoses or accidental poisonings, often involving opioid drugs.

It is critical that we all learn about the proper usage, storage, and disposal of prescription drugs which are no longer needed or expired, to help prevent misuse and abuse of prescription drugs.

The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) hosts National Prescription Drug Take Back Day on the last Saturday of both April and October.
