There is a Need for Drug Rehabilitation in Texas

Cocaine is the primary illicit drug for which Texans enter treatment. The drug trends for each state has a direct correlation to the amount of drugs seized by federal authorities. The state with the highest seizures of cocaine, indicating it has the most trafficing problems, was Texas with 15,192.9 kilograms (about 15 tons), more than double any other state. It is a further indicator of the rate of cocaine abuse, cocaine addiction, domestic violence, and child abuse.

Heroin-dependent clients entering treatment are primarily injectors, but the proportion who are inhaling or sniffing heroin is increasing, the age of treatment admissions is decreasing, and the proportion of Hispanics is increasing. Mexican black tar (MBT) heroin remains the primary heroin threat in north Texas. Mexican black tar and brown heroin are routinely seized in south Texas. 142.0 kgs. in all were seized in 2008, making Texas the 5th highest state in the U.S.

Marijuana indicators are mixed, and treatment admissions referred from the criminal justice system are less impaired than those who enter treatment voluntarily. Marijuana remains readily available and is considered the most widely used illegal drug throughout the State of Texas. Over 600,000 kgs were seized in 2008, more than any other state.

Methamphetamine (Meth) is a highly addictive drug. It is transported in multi-pound quantities directly from Mexico. Crystallized Methamphetamine (ICE) is being sold in local clubs and is also being offered by Mexican traffickers. Smoking ice is now the major route of administration for persons entering methamphetamine treatment. Over 450 kgs were seized in Texas, more than any other state.

Pharmaceuticals: Benzodiazepines, OxyContin®, Prometh® w/codeine, fentanyl, Tussionex®, Lortab®/Lorcet®, ketamine, Buprenex®, and phentermine were also identified as being among the most commonly abused and diverted pharmaceuticals in Texas.

Club Drugs include Ecstasy (MDMA), and other dangerous drugs readily available and transported through Houston include Rohypnol, Ketamine, GHB, LSD, and PCP. Dallas has above national average in its emergency room visits for MDMA, Ketamine, LSD, and PCP and is ranked second nationally for GHB and Rohypnol emergency room visits.

The most common prescription drugs abused in North Texas are hydrocodone, alprazolam, and benzodiazepene. Oxycontin is now the drug of choice for abusers seeking pharmaceuticals in the Tyler area. The most commonly abused pharmaceutical drugs in Houston continue to be Hydrocodone, Promethazine with Codeine and other Codeine cough syrups, and Benzodiazepines (mostly Alprazolam). In San Antonio include also Morphine, Dilaudid, Diazepam, Xanax, Tussionex, Lortab, Vicodin, and Ketamine.
