Even short courses of opioids are linked to substance abuse. Reported rates of opioid prescription in dermatologic surgery are variable, with no consensus on when they should be prescribed. Little population data currently exists on opioids in dermatologic surgery and the potentially serious complications that result. Here, we use an international patient data network to evaluate trends in postoperative opioid prescription in the setting of dermatologic surgery and complications that may result.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This retrospective cohort study analyzed patients within the TriNetX research network. A total of 1,160,223 dermatologic surgery patients were extracted. Risk analyses were conducted examining (1) oral opioid prescription within 2\u2009days postsurgery; (2) adverse events related to opioid use 3\u2009months to 5\u2009years postsurgery. Propensity score matching included variables: age, gender, race, ethnicity, complex regional pain syndrome, back pain, osteoarthritis, and malignancy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A total of 124,292 (13.6%) patients received postsurgical opioids. Black or African American race, female gender, and Latino ethnicity were associated with significantly higher absolute risk of postsurgical opioid prescription. A positive history of prior opioid prescription, opioid abuse or dependence, or substance abuse yielded a significant increase in the absolute risk of receiving postsurgical opioids (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.0001).
