Indian Study Links Drug Addiction, Peer Pressure PDF Print E-mail
A major research study of drug addiction in India found that the majority became hooked on drugs after friends introduced drugs to them. An additional 35 percent said they became addicted after trying out drugs for fun and out of curiosity.
  • Researchers from the National Drug Agency in India surveyed 26,840 drug addicts, most of whom were addicted to heroin or morphine.
  • Most of the study subjects were between 18 and 40 years old.
  • Ninety eight percent of the subjects had attended school.
  • The vast majority were men.
Dr. Mahmood Nazar Mohamed said that the first taste of drugs could put youngsters in risk for addiction. He also said rehabilitation could take between one to two years depending on the level of addiction.
