What
they are saying
 |
|
The abuse of prescription drugs represents close to 30% of the
overall drug problem in the United States, a close second to
only cocaine, according to the DEA.
Survey: Youths Using Less Cocaine and Heroin, More Ecstasy and
Illicit
Prescription Drugs.
one survey at the University of
Wisconsin found one in five students had
tried illicit prescription drugs.
The DEA estimates prescription drug abuse accounts for 30
percent of
reported deaths and injuries from drugs, fuels a multibillion
dollar illicit
market, and contributes significantly to street crime.
Nationally, 9 million people illicitly used prescription drugs
in 1998, far
more than the 1 million who used crack cocaine, according to
the National
Institute on Drug Abuse.
