Research of topic:
Key Facts:
In 2005/06, 10.5% of adults aged 16 to 59 living in England and
Wales had used one or more illicit (illegal) drug in the last year, a
decrease from 12.1% in 1998.
6.3% had used an illicit (illegal) drug in the last month, a fall from
7.1% in 1998.
The use of any Class A drug (like heroin) in the last year has
increased, from 2.7% in 1998 to 3.4% in 2005/06, mainly due to a
rise in the use of cocaine powder.
Men are more likely to take illicit (illegal) drugs than women: 13.7%
of men compared with 7.4% of women took illegal drugs in the last
year.
For Class A drugs, the highest levels were found among those living
in London.
For younger adults aged 16 to 24, drug use in the last year fell
between 1998 and 2005/06, from 31.8% to 25.2%, whilst the use of
Class A drug use has remained stable.
In Australia, there are far more health problems and drug-related
deaths from the legal drugs alcohol and tobacco than there are from
illegal drugs.
Most people who use drugs are ordinary people.
The number of young people who experiment with legal and illegal
drugs dramatically increases between the school years seven to 11.
rug use is often a health problem and drug users need our help and
understanding.
Very few people under 18 experiment with heroin.
Less than two per cent of people over 14 years have ever tried
heroin.
