Summary: | The objective in this study was to investigate
drug consumption among students of a private
school in the city of São Paulo. For all, a
close anonymous self-administered questionnaire
was held to collect sociodemographic
data and identify the pattern of abusive use
of drugs. There were 46,2% male participants
and 53,8% females, aged 11-21 years. The largest
consumption indexes were seen for alcohol
(78,8%) and tobacco (65,8%). Most used drugs
were solvents (32,2%) and marijuana (30,5%).
The drug use seen in the study was similar
to that described in CEBRID (Brazilian Data
Institute on Psychoactive Drugs) studies. |
