Drug abuse has been a national social problem in the United States for decades and is often complicated by the emergence of new types of abused drugs or new forms of abuse. The forms of abuse, particularly by young persons, include the search for substitutes for better-known substances. It is unclear, however, what factors determine the choice of drug or substance for experimentation, considering the wide range of choices. This paper attempts to delineate the factors which make Dextromethorphan-based cough syrup an attractive choice.
几十年来，药物滥用在美国一直是一个全国性的社会问题，而且常常因新型滥用药物或新的滥用形式的出现而变得更加复杂。滥用形式，尤其是年轻人的滥用形式，包括寻找更为人熟知的物质的替代品。然而，考虑到选择范围广泛，尚不清楚哪些因素决定了用于尝试的药物或物质的选择。本文试图阐述使右美沙芬止咳糖浆成为一个有吸引力选择的因素。
