Interesting Facts and Statistics:

According to the Drug Abuse Warning Network (DAWN), over two-thirds of the top twenty most abused controlled substances in the United States are prescription medications; benzodiazepines top the list.

One ounce of meth can be made for as little as $150 and sold for $1,500.

There were 9.6 million people aged 12 or older (3.9 percent) who were current users of illegal drugs other than marijuana in 2006. Most (7.0 million persons, or 2.8 percent of the population) used psychotherapeutic drugs nonmedically. In addition to the estimated 5.2 million nonmedical users of pain relievers in 2006, 1.8 million used tranquilizers, 1.2 million used stimulants, and 385,000 used sedatives. The numbers of nonmedical users of tranquilizers, stimulants, and sedatives were similar to the corresponding numbers in 2005, and the percentage rates also remained stable.

The rates of binge alcohol use among teens aged 12 to 17 were 9.8 percent in nonmetropolitan areas, 9.0 percent in small metropolitan areas, and 8.4 percent in large metropolitan areas.

The Nazis in Germany originally developed Methadone during war time in order to avoid the withdrawal symptoms that were associated with opium use, as their supply of the drug was quickly being cut off. Chemists developed Methadone, which not only worked, but its effects lasted a lot longer than the opium that it was developed to replace.

Chronic opiate abuse may result in cellulitis and collapsed veins are also likely to develop as users hunt for different injection sites around their bodies.
