DRUG EDUCATION
I. Importance and Relevance of Drug Education
1.1 What Drugs Are?
10
DEFINITION
 Chemical substance used as medicine or in making medicines, which affects the body and
mind and have potential for abuse, without an advice or prescription from physician, drugs
can be harmful.
 Any chemical substance that by virtue of its chemical nature alters the structure and
functioning of a living organism.
TWO FORMS OF DRUGS
1. Natural Drugs: include natural plant leaves, flowering tops, resin, hashish, opium and
marijuana.
2. Synthetic Drugs: are produced by clandestine laboratories which include those drugs that are
controlled by law because they are used in medical practice. Physicians prescribe them and are
purchased in legitimate outlets like drug stores.
Note: Most drugs can be legally purchased only with doctors’ written order called prescription.
Only medical doctor can prescribe medical drugs. These drugs could be dangerous and must be
used with care, according to the doctor prescription. The practice of taking drugs without proper
medical supervision is called the non-medical use of drugs or drug abuse.
1. Prescriptive drugs: these are drugs requiring written authorization from a doctor in order to
allow a purchase. They are prescribe according to the individual age, weight, and height and
should not be taken by anyone else.
2. Over-the-counter Drugs (OTC): these are non-prescription medicines which may be

purchased from any pharmacy or drug store without written authorization from a doctor they are
used to treat minor and short term illness and any persistent condition should be immediately
referred to a physician. Direction should be closely followed and all precaution necessary taken
to avoid complication.
11
Self medication syndrome – is found in users or would be users of drugs whose source of
information are people or literature other than doctors, pharmacists and health worker. These
could be members of the family, relatives and neighbors, all of whom may have previously used
the drug for their specific disease or disorder.
Possible outcomes:
1. Adverse reaction towards the drug such as allergies which may be mild or severs.
2. Possible non-response of the patient to the drug effectively due to incorrect drug usage.
3. Possible drug toxicities, through overdose which may lead to severe reaction such as nausea,
vomiting, rashes, etc.
4. Possible habit forming characteristic due to periodic use of drugs even such are no longer.
HOW DRUGS WORK?
The actual action of a particular drug depends on its chemical make-up. When two drugs are
taken together or within a few hours of each other they may interact with unexpected result, the
amount of drugs in a dose can be described as:
1. Minimal dose: the smallest amount of a drug that will produce therapeutic effects.
2. Maximal dose: largest amount of drug that will produce a desired therapeutic effect without
any accompanying symptoms of toxicity.
3. Toxic dose: amount of a drug that produces untoward effects or symptoms of poisoning.
4. Abusive dose: amount needed to produce the side effects and action desired by an individual
who improperly uses it.
5. Lethal dose: amount of drug that it causes death.
12
ADMINISTRATION OF DRUG
1. Oral (Oral Ingestion): the safest and most convenient and economical route whenever
possible. The drug is taken by the mouth and must pass through the stomach before being
absorbed into the bloodstream. This is one of the most common ways of taking a drug.
2. Injection: offers a faster response that the oral method delivers the drug directly into the body
tissue and blood circulation. The drug can be administered into the body by the use of syringe
and hypodermic needle in the following ways.
3. Subcutaneous (SC): drug is administered by injecting the drug just below the surface of the
skin. Sometimes called skin popping.
4. Intramuscular (IM): administration involves the injection of a drug into a large muscle mass
that has a good blood supply, such as the gluteus maximus, quadriceps, or triceps.
5. Intravenous (IN): the most efficient means of administration which involves depositing drug
directly into the bloodstream. This is the most rapid method of drug administration.
6. Inhalation: makes use of gaseous and volatile drugs which are inhaled and absorbed rapidly
through the mucous of the respiratory tract. Drug in gaseous form enters the lungs and is quickly
absorbed by the rich capillary system. It is probably the second most commonly used route of
drug administration.
4. Topical: the application of drugs to a body site such as the skin.
5. Iontophoresis: introduction of drugs into deeper layers of the skin by the use of electric
current for local effect.
6. Snorting: inhalation through the nose of rugs not in gaseous form. It is performed by inhaling
a powder of liquid drug into the nose coats of the mucous membrane.
7. Buccal: the drug is administered by placing them in the buccal cavity just under the lips. The
active ingredients of the drug will be absorbed into the bloodstream through the soft tissues
lining of the mouth.
13
8. Suppositories: the drug is administered through the vagina or rectum in suppository form and
the drug will also be absorbed by the blood stream.
9. Sublingual: under tongue.
10. Mucous membrane: inside mouth and nose.
TOXICOLOGY:
1. Overdose: an over of its effects.
2. Allergy: cause release of the histamine giving rise to allergic symptoms like dermatitis.
3. Idiosyncrasy: sedates all men.
4. General protoplasmic poison property: property of being general protoplasmic poisons.
5. Side effect: effects which are unwanted.
ARE ALL DRUG HARMFUL
 Any drug maybe harmful with abused. Drugs that affect the mind can have subtle or an
obvious side effect which can immediately or many only become evident after long
continuous use. These are drugs that are taken as medicines but certain drugs are taken not as
medicine but to satisfy a craving or a strong desire and taking them become an ingrained
habit.
SEVEN CATEGORIES OF DRUGS
1. Herbal Drugs
 These are plant substances that have drug effects and whose use is not generally regulated by
law.
2. Over-the-Counter Drugs
14
 These are commercially produced drugs that may be purchased legally without prescription.
 Also known as propriety drugs.
3. Prescription Drugs
 These are commercially produced drugs in that they are legally sold or dispensed only by a
physician’s order.
 They are like over-the-counter drugs in that they are manufactured by pharmaceutical
companies, but they differ, in that the decision to use drugs is legally vested in a licensed
physician not in the user.
4. Unrecognized Drugs
 These are commercial products that have a psychoactive drug effects but are not usually
considered drugs.
 These substances are not generally regulated by law except insofar as standards of sanitation
and purity are required.
5. Illicit Drugs
 These are drugs whole sale, purchase or use is generally prohibited by law.
 Criminal penalties usually apply to violators of these laws.
6. Tobacco
 This is not generally considered a drug and thus be classed as an unrecognized drug.
7. Alcohol
 Could be included in the unrecognized drug.

 Alcohol in forms, such as beer, wine, and distilled liquor is one of the most widely used
drugs in our society.
 Most commonly abused drug in our society.
FOUR PHARMACOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATIONS OF DRUGS
1. Hallucinogens (psychedelics)
 These are drugs capable of provoking sensation, thinking, self-awareness and emotion.
15
 Alteration of time and space perception, illusions, hallucinations, and delusions, may be
minimal or overwhelming depending on the dose.
 The user experience hallucination (false perception) which at times can be strange.
 The most popular hallucinogens are LSD, Marijuana, and Mescaline.
2. Stimulants (uppers)
 These are drugs which increase alertness, reduce hunger and provide a feeling of well-being.
 Medical uses include narcolepsy: Overwhelming desire to sleep.
 The most common stimulants are Cocaine and Amphetamines.
3. Depressants (downers)
 Drug which suppresses vital function especially those of the brain or central nervous system
with the resulting impairment of judgment, hearing, speech and muscular coordination when
taken in generally decreases both the mental and physical activities of the body. They cause
depression, relieve pain and induce sedation or sleep and suppress cough.
 This group include sedatives, hypnotics, and tranquilizers.
4. Narcotics
 These are drugs which produce insensitivity (relieves pain), stupor, melancholy or dullness of
mind with delusions.
 The most popular narcotics are Opium, Codeine, and Morphine as well as synthetics opiates,
meperdine and methadone are classified as narcotics.
1.2 History of Drug Abuse
 The use of chemical substance that alters physiological and psychological functioning dates
back to the Old Stone Age, Egyptian relic from the 3500 BC depict the use of opium in
religious rituals. By 6000 BC, an Egyptian reference work listed opium as an analgesic, or
painkiller. The Incas of South America were known to have used cocaine for at least 5000
years ago. Cannabis, the hemp plant from which marijuana and hashish are derived, also has
a 5000-year history.
16
 As drugs have been abused for hundreds of years all over the world, their effects have been
felt for just as long. Since drugs have been used, there were always those who abused them,
which led to full-blown addiction and the bevy of side effects that come with it. As the
physical and mental health implications of addiction became clearer, rehabilitation efforts
began to appear. As a result, the history of rehabilitation in the United States dates back
hundreds of years.
 One of the Founding Fathers of America, Benjamin Rush, was one of the first to believe that
alcoholism was not a matter of personal willpower but rather due to the alcohol itself. Rush
challenged the accepted belief at the time that alcoholism was a moral failing, thereby
progressing the concept of addiction as a disease. Per the University of Utah, in the past,
addiction was treated as a criminal offense, with intensive faith-based prayer, or in mental
institutions, but this signified a shift to viewing addiction as an illness that could be managed.
 In 1864, the New York State Inebriate Asylum, the first hospital intended to solely treat
alcoholism as a mental health condition, was founded. As the public began to view
alcoholism and related drug abuse more seriously, more community groups and sober houses
began appearing.
 Today, thousands of drug abuse rehabilitation programs offer addicts a variety of treatment
approaches, ranging from traditional, evidenced-based care to more experimental or holistic
services. Since care should be customized according to the individual patient, oftentimes
one’s treatment regime will consist of a range of therapies that have been chosen specifically
for the individual.
 Following Prohibition and the Twenty-first Amendment, which overturned Prohibition, a
major step for the rehabilitation movement came in 1935, when Dr. Bob Smith and Bill
Wilson – commonly known as Dr. Bob and Bill W. – founded Alcoholics Anonymous (AA).
Using a spiritually based approach to rehabilitation, AA presented a welcoming environment
where recovering alcoholics could find solace and support. From the AA format, various
other branches formed.
 Today, thousands of drug abuse rehabilitation programs offer addicts a variety of treatment
approaches, ranging from traditional, evidenced-based care to more experimental or holistic
services. Since care should be customized according to the individual patient, oftentimes
17
one’s treatment regime will consist of a range of therapies that have been chosen specifically
for the individual.

2.2 General Patterns of Drug Taking
1. Circumstantial-Situational Use: drug taking on a short-term basis as a way of coping with

some immediate distress or pressure.
2. Experimental Use: it implies short-time use at one or a variety of drugs, either singly or in
combination. Curiosity to experience something new, or peer group pressure are the major
motivations for experimental drug use.
3. Social-Recreational Use: very similar to experimental use but it is more patterned than
experimental use. Use of drugs occurs within social settings and is motivated by desire to
share pleasurable experiences among friends.
4. Intensified Use: implies the regular and long term consumption of a drug or series of drugs
by an individual to achieve relief from persistent problem or stressful situation on his on his
desire to maintain a certain self-prescribed level of performance.
20
5. Compulsive Use: it is characterized by diminished social integration and functioning. It has

escalated to the point where a reduction in the intensity or frequency will be accompanied by
increasing discomfort on the part of the individual.
Social Factors That Determine the Levels and Patterns of Drug Taking
1. Information – Friends and relatives may offer information on situations in which certain
substances maybe used for specific purpose.
2. Example – This occasional user may learn by watching the behavior of peers, what situation
are appropriate for certain kinds of drug use and what level of use can be deemed excessive.
3. Ideology – Participation in drug-using groups provides supporting ideologies that neutralizes
some of the negative opinions and attitudes surrounding illicit drug use and provides positive
reinforcement and justification for drug taking behavior.
4. Opportunity – The more people there are in the environment who use drugs on a regular
basis, the more likely that opportunities to use them will arise.
2.3 The Term Dependence
 Originally, the term used popularly to describe dependence on drug was drug addiction. This
term has been replaced by the World Health Organization (WHO) with term drug
dependence.
 Drug dependence has become a severe social problem for its adverse effects upon the youth.
It is also widespread among women and men of desperate social, financial, or economic
status. It is harmful; it ruins life; it breaks down discretion leading to criminality and even
suicide. Drug dependence has been found to be a common problem not only in other large
urban places, but even the remotest rural places of our country.
21
 Physical dependence – the result when a drug has been used for a long period of time. It is
only identified when a characteristic withdrawal or abstinence syndrome occurs after its use
is discontinued.
 Psychological dependence – refers to a state n which an individual has a compulsion to take
a drug, but one in which there may not be a physical dependence.
DRUG HABITUATION
 A condition resulting from the repeated consumption of a drug.
CHARACTERISTICS OF DRUG HABITUATION
 A desire but not compulsive to continue taking the drug for the sense of improve well-being
it engenders.
 Little or no tendency to increase dose
 Some degree of psychic dependence on the effect of drug but absence on physical
dependence and hence of abstinence syndrome
 Detrimental effect if any, primarily on the individual
DRUG ADDICTION
 A state of periodic or chronic intoxication produced by the repeated consumption of a drug:

natural or synthetic.
CHARACTERISTICS OF DRUG ADDICTION
 An overpowering desire or need, compulsion to continue taking the drug and obtain it by any

22
DRUG ABUSE may also refer to the following
1. Use of medically useful drugs which have the capacity to alter mood and behavior without the
benefit of prescription
2. Use of medically useful mood-altering drug for a purpose different from the one for which that
drug has been prescribed
3. Use of drugs and substance having no legitimate medical application for purposes other than
research.
REASONS OF PEOPLE TURN TO DRUGS:
1. Poverty: the most prevalent that prompt pushers and abusers alike to indulge in dangerous
drugs. Pushers were forced by the circumstances to the retailing of prohibited drugs as a meant
or source of livelihood. Many abusers use dangerous drugs as a vehicle to escape the realities of
poverty and its concomitant problems.
2. Ignorance: Lack of knowledge and information about how dangerous drugs look like, their
bad effects, legal ramifications or consequences and other aspects or prohibited drugs, drug
addiction, drug pushing, drug syndicates and many others.

SEVEN DEADLY SINS (Dante Alegre’s Divine Comedy)
1. Pride: is considered, on almost every list, the original and most serious of the seven deadly
sins: the perversion of the faculties that make humans more like God—dignity and holiness. It is
also thought to be the source of the other capital sins.
2. Envy: like greed and lust, is characterized by an insatiable desire. It can be described as a sad
or resentful covetousness towards the traits or possessions of someone else. It arises from
vainglory, and severs a man from his neighbor.
3. Wrath: can be defined as uncontrolled feelings of anger, rage, and even hatred. Wrath often
reveals itself in the wish to seek vengeance. In its purest form, wrath presents with injury,
violence, and hate that may provoke feuds that can go on for centuries. Wrath may persist long
after the person who did another a grievous wrong is dead.
4. Sloth: refers to a peculiar jumble of notions, dating from antiquity and including mental,
spiritual, pathological, and physical states. It may be defined as absence of interest or habitual
disinclination to exertion.
5. Greed: also known as avarice, cupidity, or covetousness, is, like lust and gluttony, a sin of
desire. However, greed (as seen by the Church) is applied to an artificial, rapacious desire and
pursuit of material possessions.
6. Gluttony: is the overindulgence and overconsumption of anything to the point of waste. The
word derives from the Latin gluttire, meaning to gulp down or swallow.
7. Lust: is intense longing. It is usually thought of as intense or unbridled sexual desire, which
leads to fornication, adultery, rape, bestiality, and other sinful sexual acts. However, lust could
also mean simply desire in general; thus, lust for money, power, and other things are sinful.
