本文综述了自1994年以来南非目前药物使用和药物滥用治疗的流行病学数据,以及种族隔离前后南非政治、经济和社会结构的变化如何使该国更容易受到药物使用的影响。根据国家调查,目前大麻的使用情况在青少年中为2%至9%,在成人中为2%,可卡因/快克(0.3%)、mandrax/镇静剂(0.3%)、俱乐部毒品/苯丙胺类兴奋剂(0.2%)、阿片剂(0.1%)和致幻剂(0.1%)。南非戒毒中心收治的主要非法物质是大麻16.9%,甲基苯丙胺(Tik)12.8%,快克/可卡因9.6%,大麻和mandrax 3.4%,海洛因/阿片类药物9.2%,处方药和OTC 2.6%。接受药物滥用治疗的人数有所增加。虽然与美国和澳大利亚相比,南非的非法药物使用流行率相对较低,但需要制定预防和干预政策,通过针对本次审查确定的风险更高的亚群来降低这些水平。
This review synthesizes available epidemiological data on current drug use and substance abuse treatment admissions in south africa since 1994, and how changes in the political, economic and social structures within south africa both before and after apartheid make the country more vulnerable to drug use. based on national surveys current use of cannabis ranged among adolescents from 2% to 9% and among adults 2%, cocaine/crack (0.3%), mandrax/sedatives (0.3%), club drugs/amphetamine-type stimulants (0.2%), opiates (0.1%) and hallucinogens (0.1%). The primary illicit substance at admission to South African drug treatment centers was cannabis 16.9%, methamphetamine (Tik) 12.8%, crack/cocaine 9.6%, cannabis and mandrax 3.4%, heroin/opiates 9.2%, and prescription and OTC 2.6%. An increase in substance abuse treatment admissions has occurred. While the prevalence of illicit drug use in South Africa is relatively low compared to the USA and Australia, prevention and intervention policies need to be designed to reduce these levels by targeting the more risky subpopulations identified from this review.
