Interesting Facts and Statistics:

The generic name for Xanax is alprazolam; the generic name for the most similar drug in this class, which is Valium, is halazepam.

Most teens aged 12 to 17 believed their parents would "strongly disapprove" of their using substances. In 2005, 91.1 percent of teens aged 12 to 17 reported that their parents would strongly disapprove of their smoking one or more packs of cigarettes per day, while the remaining 8.9 percent believed their parents would "somewhat disapprove" or "neither approve nor disapprove." A majority of teens (90.2 percent) reported that their parents would strongly disapprove of their trying marijuana or hashish once or twice, and 88.9 percent reported their parents would strongly disapprove of their having one or two drinks of an alcoholic beverage nearly every day. These rates of perceived parental disapproval in 2005 were similar to those seen in 2004.

Possession of LSD is illegal and an individual could be charged with a felony and up to 6 months in prison for the first offence.

In 2006, the rate of current illegal drug use was almost 9 times higher among teens aged 12 to 17 who smoked cigarettes in the past month (47.8 percent) than it was among teens who did not smoke cigarettes in the past month (5.4 percent).

Opiates can be taken by mouth, smoked, or snorted, although addicts often prefer intravenous injection, which gives the strongest, quickest pleasure.
