Interesting Facts and Statistics:

Due to the problem with the diversion of OxyContin, numerous states have also introduced prescription monitoring and banned the sale of the drug over the internet.

Current illegal drug use rates remained stable from 2005 to 2006 among teens aged 12 to 17. However, rates of current use declined significantly from 2002 to 2006 for any illegal drug and several specific drugs (including marijuana, hallucinogens, LSD, Ecstasy, prescription-type drugs used nonmedically, pain relievers, tranquilizers, and the use of illegal drugs other than marijuana). For any illegal drug use, the rates were 11.6 percent in 2002, 11.2 percent in 2003, 10.6 percent in 2004, 9.9 percent in 2005, and 9.8 percent in 2006.

As observed in prior years, the level of alcohol use was strongly associated with illegal drug use in 2001. Among the 12.9 million heavy drinkers aged 12 or older, 30.7 percent were current illegal drug users. For binge drinkers who were not heavy drinkers, 15.9 percent reported past month illegal drug use. Other drinkers (i.e., past month alcohol use but not binge drinking) had a rate of 5.4 percent for current illegal drug use, and persons who did not use alcohol in the past month were least likely to use illegal drugs (2.8 percent).

Based on 2004-2005 combined data, among persons who needed but did not receive illegal drug or alcohol use treatment, felt they needed treatment, and made an effort to receive treatment, the four most often reported reasons for not receiving treatment were (a) cost or insurance barriers (44.4 percent), (b) other access barriers (21.2 percent), (c) not ready to stop using (21.1 percent), and (d) stigma (18.5 percent).

An estimated 374,000 people entering an emergency room annually do so with a primary marijuana problem.

A large percentage of property related crimes, especially in regards to theft, are done by individuals that need to find a way to feed their addiction.
