Interesting Facts and Statistics:

Most of the individuals who are given prescription medications by their doctors take the medications responsibly, but approximately 11 million Americans used prescription drugs for non-medical purposes during 2006 according to surveys that were conducted by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA).

Long term residential drug rehab treatment generally involves a period of three to six months so as to provide the individual with an extensive change of environment as well as around the clock professional support. Research has proven that this type of treatment is by far the most successful for those individuals who have a history of heavy drug addiction spanning over many years.

Heroin available in the U.S. is produced in four distinct geographical areas: South America (Colombia), Southeast Asia (primarily Burma), Mexico, and Southwest Asia (principally Afghanistan).

In 1965, the potential for rapid and serious addiction prompted the government to restrict access to amphetamines.

The first methamphetamine labs in the United States produced a modest amount of the drug and were often run by outlaw motorcycle gangs.

In the West, the prevalence of current smokeless tobacco use among persons aged 12 or older increased from 2.0 percent in 2005 to 2.7 percent in 2006; this increase also occurred both among teens aged 12 to 17 (from 1.0 to 1.8 percent) and adults aged 18 or older (from 2.2 to 2.8 percent). In the South, current cigarette smoking among adults aged 26 or older increased from 25.0 percent in 2005 to 27.1 percent in 2006.
