Interesting Facts and Statistics:

The national rate for past year dependence on or abuse of alcohol or illegal drugs among persons aged 12 or older was about 9.4 percent. When examining dependence on or abuse of alcohol or illegal drugs at the State level, the States with high rates for alcohol dependence or abuse tended to dominate the top fifth for alcohol and illegal drug dependence or abuse combined because alcohol accounts for the vast majority of substance dependence or abuse.

Both physicians and pharmacies are required to maintain careful record-keeping of prescribing information including quantity, frequency, and renewal requests due to the illegal diversion of OxyContin and other drugs.

There was a slight relationship between high rates of past year illegal drug dependence and high rates of past year cocaine use for persons aged 12 or older at the State level. Seven States ranked in the highest fifth for both measures. The relationship between low rates of past year illegal drug dependence and low rates of past year cocaine use for persons aged 12 or older at the State level was not as strong. Only three States (Hawaii, North Dakota, and South Dakota) ranked in the lowest quintile for both the measures. Interestingly, Washington, which ranked in the highest fifth for past year dependence on illegal drugs, ranked in the lowest fifth for past year use of cocaine among persons aged 12 or older .

The individual that becomes dependent of Xanax no longer takes the medication for anxiety; the addicted patient now takes the drug for the anxiety that is caused by withdrawal from the medication.

In 2008, the average age at first alcohol use among recent initiates aged 12 to 49 was 17.0 years, similar to the corresponding 2007 estimate (16.8 years). The mean age at first use among recent initiates aged 12 or older who initiated use prior to the age of 21 was 15.9 years, which was similar to the 2007 estimate (15.8 years).

The abuse of prescription drugs, especially abuse of opioids, has developed into a public health crisis that is taking a tremendous toll on individuals, families, the healthcare system, and communities across the United States.
