Drug Trends in IndianaFree Rehab Centers in Indiana

In the most recent National Survey on Drug Use and Health, which provides national and state level information about drug, alcohol, tobacco, illicit drugs, and mental health in America, the rate of illicit drug use in Indiana exceed the national average.

The number of adult Americans who reported using illicit drugs in the previous month was 8.02 percent of the population, while the rate of use among Indiana residents was 8.79 percent. When marijuana was removed from the question, the number of adult Americans using an illicit drug in the past month was 3.58 percent, while the rate of illicit drug (other than marijuana) use among Indiana residents was 4.2 percent. This points to a growing problem with drug use in the state.

Likewise, the rate of drug-related deaths in Indiana also exceeds the national average. In 2007, 827 people in Indiana died as a direct consequence of drug use, less than the number who dies in auto accidents and more than the number who died from firearms. The national rate for drug-induced deaths is 12.7 deaths per 100,000 people. In Indiana, it is only slightly higher, 13 deaths per 100,000 people.
