Background: Adolescent substance use is a dynamic public health problem. Adolescence is a unique developmental period involving overlapping biological, psychological, and social factors which increase the rates of initiation of substance use. The developing adolescent brain is particularly susceptible to the effects of substances and most adults with substance use disorders began to have symptoms and problems in their adolescent years. Yet, for various reasons, most adolescents who use, misuse, abuse, or are addicted to substances do not perceive the need for treatment. Objective: Drug and alc

The health problems of adolescents have recently become the focus of new and unprecedented attention by public health officials and physician organizations.

Applying the Oxford rates to England and Wales suggests a total of 18 000–19 000 hospital-referred cases per year.
