UMKC’s FBI Student Academy held a seminar last week to warn future pharmacists about their responsibility in preventing prescription drug abuse and the opioid crisis.
The seminar featured Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agents who discussed their recent work in fighting the illegal distribution of opioids through doctor and pharmacist networks.
DEA agents shared information with the audience about the ongoing drug epidemic in the United States. The U.S. produces and prescribes more than 79,000 kg of opioids a year, ranking as the highest drug manufacturing country in the world.
