  • In 2009, over 600,000 Americans age 12 and older had abused heroin at least once in the year prior to being surveyed.

  • Abuse of prescription drugs including opioids, central nervous system (CNS) depressants, and stimulants can alter the brains activity and lead to addiction.
  • According to data that has been compiled from the National Vital Statistics System, drug poisoning incidents have accounted for tens of thousands of unintentional poisoning deaths in the United States.
