Increase in use of methamphetamine: Findings from the DUMA program

The latest Drug Use Monitoring in Australia data shows that the continuing decline in methamphetamine use since 2004 has ended, with rates of use among police detainees increasing in both 2010 and 2011. Self-report data also indicates that methamphetamine is considered by users to be higher in quality and easier to obtain in 2011 compared with earlier years.

Read the report from the Australian Institute of Criminology’s Drug Use Monitoring in Australia (DUMA) program here.
