The Researched Abuse, Diversion and Addiction-Related Surveillance (RADARS®) System is a prescription drug abuse, misuse and diversion surveillance system that collects timely product-and geographically-specific data.

The RADARS System measures rates of abuse, misuse and diversion throughout the United States, contributing to the understanding of trends and aiding the development of effective interventions. These data assist pharmaceutical companies in fulfillment of their regulatory obligations such as risk evaluation and mitigation strategies (REMS).

Eight RADARS System Programs target diverse populations and capture numerator data on different facets of the drug dependence pathway. These data are collected in a systematic fashion and under a rigorous quality assurance program:

•Drug Diversion Program
•Poison Center Program
•Opioid Treatment Program
•Survey of Key Informants' Patients Program 
•Impaired Health Care Worker Program
•College Survey Program
•StreetRx
•Web Monitoring

The RADARS System biostatistics team offers consulting services for analysis of client specific research questions. 

RADARS System data are reviewed by esteemed members of the RADARS System Scientific Advisory Board.

Standard quarterly and annual reports are available to RADARS System subscribers within four months of the end of the time period of interest. Customized and ad hoc reports are also available for both subscribers and others on an as-needed basis.

RADARS System data and results of analyses are regularly published in peer reviewed journals and presented at scientific conferences.
