Prescription Monitoring Program: Proportion of Opioid Agonists per Morphine Milligram Equivalent (MME) Category

This dataset shows the proportion of opioid agonists per Morphine Milligram Equivalent (MME) of opioid prescription dispensed. The morphine milligram equivalent is an opioid dosage equivalent to morphine. This measurement is used to determine the abuse and overdose potential, and to set thresholds for prescribing and dispensing opioids. The lowest effective dosage is set at less than 50 MME and the highest is greater than 90 MME.
