Did You Know? ...
Interesting Facts and Statistics:

From 2002 to 2006, the rate of current use of marijuana among young adults aged 18 to 25 declined from 17.3 to 16.3 percent. Past month nonmedical use of prescription type drugs among young adults increased from 5.4 percent in 2002 to 6.4 percent in 2006. This was primarily due to an increase in the rate of pain reliever use, which was 4.1 percent in 2002 and 4.9 percent in 2006. However, nonmedical use of tranquilizers also increased over the 5 year period (from 1.6 to 2.0 percent).

The medical causes of drug abuse are not yet completely understood. Researchers can only report that the repeated use of addictive drugs can bring about dramatic changes in both the structure and the function of the brain; this process can then result in compulsive drug use.

Nearly 2 percent of high school seniors in the United States used the drug at least once in their lifetime, and nearly half of those injected the drug.

Increases in the perceived risk of using a substance often are associated with decreases in the rate of use of that substance. Looking over 4 years, the proportion of teens aged 12 to 17 who reported perceiving great risk from smoking one or more packs of cigarettes per day increased from 63.1 percent in 2002 to 68.3 percent in 2005. Over the same period, the rate of past month cigarette smoking among teens decreased from 13.0 to 10.8 percent, and the rate of lifetime cigarette smoking declined from 33.3 to 26.7 percent. There was no change between 2004 and 2005 in the percentage of teens who perceived a great risk of smoking one or more packs of cigarettes per day (67.5 percent in 2004 and 68.3 percent in 2005).

In 2005, 59.8 percent of teens aged 12 to 17 reported that they had talked at least once in the past year with at least one of their parents about the dangers of drug, tobacco, or alcohol use—similar to the 60.3 percent in 2004. Among teens who reported having had such conversations with their parents, rates of current alcohol, cigarette, and illegal drug use were lower than among teens who did not talk about substance abuse. For example, past month binge drinking was reported by 9.2 percent of teens who had talked with their parents about drug, tobacco, or alcohol use compared with 11.0 percent of those who had not. Past month use of marijuana was lower among teens who had talked with their parents (6.4 percent) than among those who had not (7.4 percent).

In 2006, there were 1.1 million persons aged 12 or older who had used hallucinogens for the first time within the past 12 months. This estimate was not significantly different from the estimate in 2005 (953,000), but it was higher than the estimates in 2004 (934,000) and 2003 (886,000).
