Statistics regarding Cocaine abuse in the US
As one of the primary drug threats in the US (DEA 2009 report), cocaine in both crack and powder form also poses a serious public health threat and results in serious illnesses as well as death due to overdose. The typical delivery method of the substance includes inhalation (powder), injection (liquid), or smoking (crack). The following are some statistics regarding cocaine abuse and addiction to be aware of:
25% of US individuals aged 26 to 34 have at one time in their lives used cocaine
90% of these individuals have either drank alcohol or smoked marijuana before they used cocaine
8% of all US high school seniors admitted to trying cocaine at least once
After amphetamines and marijuana, cocaine is the most commonly used substance in the US
the US is the #1 importer and consumer of cocaine worldwide
it is estimated that 1.5 million Americans use cocaine at least once monthly
Interestingly enough, the use of cocaine today is not as widespread as it was in the 1970’s and 1980’s which was considered the heyday of its popularity. Regardless, it is still a primary drug threat in the US and a significant public health problem as well, hence the need for the numerous cocaine drug rehab programs that are in existence today.
