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

A high dose of GHB may cause nausea and vomiting, and an even higher dose can cause the user to slip into a deep coma-like sleep.

Among teens aged 12 to 17 in 2006, 3.3 million (12.9 percent) used a tobacco product in the past month, and 2.6 million (10.4 percent) used cigarettes. The rate of past month cigarette use among 12 to 17 year olds declined from 13.0 percent in 2002 to 10.4 percent in 2006. Past month use of smokeless tobacco, however, was higher in 2006 (2.4 percent) than in 2002 (2.0 percent).

Since passage of the 2006 Patriot Act which controls public access to pseudoephedrine, limits quantities, and requires identification to purchase the medicine, the number of homemade meth labs has been reduced significantly. The US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) estimates that 75% of all methamphetamine available in the U.S. today is produced in "super labs" operated by Mexican drug trafficking organizations.

The addiction to crack cocaine develops quickly, sometimes after just a few times of smoking it.

Mobile and motel-based methamphetamine labs have caught the attention of both the US news media and the police. Such meth labs can cause explosions and fires, and expose the public to hazardous chemicals.

When Xanax is obtained outside of the context of medical care, it is rarely the only substance that is being abused by the individual.
