DRUG ABUSE Introduction
It is very important to realise that
the drugs that cause the most disease
and suffering in this country are not
illegal. They are freely available to
adults with virtually no restriction.
Tobacco smoking is directly linked
to more than 100,000 deaths each year
in the UK. Many more suffer chronic ill
health as a result of its use.
Alcohol is responsible for thousands
of accidents on the road, at home and
at work. Alcohol also causes disease,
destroys families, ruins careers and
leads to crime, just like all the other
drugs mentioned in this section.
