This is from a recent news article about a study on children using drugs: “The researchers analyzed the data to estimate the average age at first-time use for 18 internationally regulated drugs for each year included in the study. Looking at year-to-year trends, they found that the average age at first use had increased for 12 out of 18 drugs, including alcohol, cocaine, ecstasy, hallucinogens, heroin, inhalants, LSD, marijuana, stimulants, and tobacco products such as cigars, cigarettes and smokeless tobacco. For the other six drugs— crack cocaine, methamphetamines, opioids, PCP, sedatives, and tranquilizers—they found no statistically significant changes in the age at first use.”
