Maryland’s Overdose Data Dashboard

Our Overdose Data Dashboard illustrates cent fatal and non-fatal overdose trends in Maryland. Data from 2021, 2022, and 2023 are preliminary at this time and are subject to change.

Introducing our new Demographic Data Dashboard!

Fatal overdose data by demographic group are now available on the OOCC’s new Demographic Dashboard! This new, companion dashboard shows fatal overdoses by age, race & ethnicity, and gender. 

Please note that the demographic dashboard has not been optimized for viewing on mobile devices at this time.

About Fatal Overdose Data

Fatal overdose data shown in the OOCC’s dashboards are provided by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner and the Vital Statistics Administration (VSA) of the Maryland Department of Health. FATAL OVERDOSE DATA ARE PRELIMINARY AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE. Finalized annual data may be found on VSA’s website here: https://health.maryland.gov/vsa/Pages/overdose.aspx.

Important Note: Most fatal overdoses involve the simultaneous use of more than one substance. The individual substance categories shown here report the total number of times a substance was involved in a fatal overdose. The sum total of deaths related to individual substance categories does not equal the total number of fatalities for the time frame presented.
