For the first time since 2018, American overdose deaths are falling—and they've kept falling for more than two years. CDC provisional data through August 2025 shows approximately 72,800 overdose deaths in the preceding 12 months, a 21% decline from the previous period. Deaths peaked at 112,000 in 2022. The drop represents roughly 80 lives saved per day compared to the crisis peak.
