drug abuse: prevention  

Définition(s)

  • Drug abuse, including tobacco and alcohol abuse, is a major health and social problem in the United States, contributing significantly to both adult and youth morbidity and mortality. The field of drug abuse prevention aims to reduce these morbidities, mortalities, and attendant costs by two means: preventing onset of drug use among youth, and preventing progression to heavy use and abuse among those youth who have already started using drugs.
