这项描述性研究的目的是在底特律大都市区的公立学校学生样本中检查处方止痛药的非医疗使用情况。这项以网络为基础的调查于2003年5月进行，为期两周，调查对象为10岁至18岁的不同人群。回应率达到87%，提供了1017名学生的最终样本。22%的女孩和10%的男孩报告终身非医疗使用止痛药(chi(2)=25.2，D.F.=1，p<；0.001)。15%的女孩和7%的男孩报告了过去一年的非医疗用途(chi(2)=12.7，V.=1，p<；0.01)。与非使用者相比，处方止痛药的非医疗使用者吸烟的可能性是非医疗使用者的7倍，饮酒和吸食大麻的可能性是5倍，酗酒的可能性几乎是4倍，使用其他非法药物的可能性是8倍。在那些报告终身非医疗使用处方止痛药的人中，70%的人指出了他们是如何获得药物的；34%的人报告从家人那里获得药物，17%的人从朋友那里获得药物，14%的人从经销商或盗窃那里获得药物。(C)2005爱思唯尔爱尔兰有限公司。保留所有权利。
The purpose of this descriptive study was to examine the nonmedical use of prescription pain medications in a sample of public school students in the Detroit metropolitan area. The Web-based survey occurred during a two-week period in May 2003 and drew on a diverse population between the ages of 10 and 18 years. An 87% response rate was achieved, providing a final sample of 1017 students. Twenty-two percent of girls and 10% of boys reported lifetime nonmedical use of a pain medication (chi(2) =25.2, d.f. = 1, p < 0.001). Fifteen percent of girls and 7% of boys reported past year nonmedical use (chi(2) = 12.7, V. = 1, p < 0.01). Compared to nonusers, nonmedical users of prescription pain medication were seven times more likely to smoke cigarettes, five times more likely to drink alcohol and smoke marijuana, almost four times more likely to binge drink, and eight times more likely to have used other illicit drubs. Of those reporting lifetime nonmedical use of prescription pain medication, 70% noted how they obtained the drugs; 34% reported getting the drugs from a family member, 17% from a friend and 14% from a dealer or theft.
