Nonmedical use of prescription drugs is common and poses risks such as injury, overdose, and development of abuse and dependence. Internet pharmacies offer prescription drugs without a prescription, creating a source of illicit drugs accessible to anyone with an Internet connection. We examined this issue in a convenience sample of 1,860 adolescents and young adults from 24 residential and outpatient treatment programs. Few individuals obtained drugs from the Internet (n = 26, 2.3%). Pain relievers were the most frequently purchased type of drug. The majority of adolescents and young adult online purchasers made the purchases from their own or a friend's house.
处方药的非医疗用途很常见,会带来诸如受伤、过量用药以及产生药物滥用和依赖等风险。网络药店无需处方就提供处方药,为任何能上网的人创造了一个非法药物来源。我们在来自24个住院和门诊治疗项目的1860名青少年和青年成年人的便利样本中研究了这个问题。很少有人从网上获取药物(n = 26,2.3%)。止痛剂是最常购买的药物类型。大多数青少年和青年成年人网购者是在自己家或朋友家进行购买的。
