OBJECTIVE: Our study examined the change in repeat opioid analgesic prescription trends in children and adolescents experiencing acute pain between 2013 and 2018.
METHODS: Eligible individuals were children and adolescents between 1 and 17 years of age enrolled in a Medicaid Managed Care plan and filled an incident opioid analgesic prescription from 2013 to 2018. A repeat opioid prescription was defined as receiving a subsequent opioid prescription within 30 days from the end of the incident opioid prescription. A generalized linear regression analysis was conducted to examine changes in repeat opioid analgesic dispensing over time at quarterly intervals from January 1, 2013, to December 31, 2018.
RESULTS: The cohort comprised 17,086 children and adolescents receiving an incident opioid analgesic. Of these, 1780 (10.4%) filled a repeat opioid analgesic prescription. There was a significant decline in the repeat opioid analgesic trend from 11.5% in Q1 2013 to 9.6% in Q4 2018. Stratified analyses by age, sex, and race and ethnicity in a sub-cohort of patients undergoing surgical procedures showed that a significant decline in repeat opioid utilization over time has been observed in all racial/ethnic groups stratified by age and sex, with the most significant decline found in non-Hispanic White children and Hispanic adolescents. At the end of the 6-year follow-up, the racial and ethnic variations in repeat opioid utilization associated with surgical procedures had significantly reduced in children yet persisted among adolescents.
CONCLUSIONS: Approximately 10% of incident pediatric opioid analgesic recipients received a repeat opioid prescription. There has been a moderate but steady decline (∼7% per quarter) in repeat opioid analgesic utilization between 2013 and 2018.
