2 What are new and emerging psychoactive substances? Designer drugs, research chemicals, synthetic drugs, analogues, legal highs. Substances not controlled by international legislation, but which may pose a public health threat. Psychoactive drugs that are relatively new to recreational markets. 2

4 15 JANUARY April AUGUST AUGUST
5 NPS use in Australian general population National Drug Strategy Household Survey Conducted every 3 years; 2013 survey first to include data on NPS 5

Indicator data 7
8 Which NPS are being monitored? (EDRS) PHENETHYLAMINES (2C-x, Benzo Fury, PMMA, DOI, NBOMe, 4-FA) TRYPTAMINES (DMT, 5-Meo-DMT, 4-AcO-DMT) SYNTHETIC CATHINONES (Mephedrone, Methylone, 4-MEC, Alpha-PVP, MDPV, Other substituted cathinone) SYNTHETIC CANNABINOIDS (K2/Spice, Kronic, Other) PIPERAZINES (BZP) PLANTS & EXTRACTS (LSA, Mescaline, Salvia Divinorum, Datura, Ayahuasca) AMINOINDANES (MDAI, 5-IAI) ARYLCYCLOHEXYLAMINES (Methoxetamine) United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, 2013, The Challenge of New Psychoactive Substances 8
9 % of EDRS sample Past six month use of any NPS, (n=5,703)
10 NPS Classes: What s increasing? % of EDRS sample 25 Phenethylamines (e.g. 2C-x, NBOMe ) Tryptamines (e.g. DMT, 5-Meo-DMT) Plant based NPS (e.g. Salvia, Ayahuasca, Datura)
11 NPS Classes: What s decreasing? % of EDRS sample Cathinones (e.g. methylone, mephedrone) Piperazines (e.g. BZP)
12 NPS Classes: Other patterns % of EDRS sample Cannabinoids Aminoindanes (MDAI, 5-IAI) Arylcyclohexylamines (MXE) Benzodiazepines Synthetic opioids, 2017 (n=3)
13 What might be driving these changes? Legislative changes Consumer preference Matthews et al., I like the old stuff better than the new stuff? Subjective experiences of new psychoactive substances. International Journal of Drug Policy, 40, Sutherland et al., Motivations for new psychoactive substance use among regular psychostimulant users in Australia, International Journal of Drug Policy, 43, Cairns et al., The impact of Australian legislative changes on synthetic cannabinoid exposures reported to the NSW Poisons Information Centre, International Journal of Drug Policy, 43,
14 Degree of overlap between use of classes ( ) Note: only first time participants included; n=3593 Note: Does not include synthetic cannabinoids. Repeat participants 14 excluded
15 How else do we monitor the NPS market in Australia? 15
16 What s being sold online? (July-Dec 2016) Roxburgh, A., Van Buskirk, J., Burns, L., and Bruno, R. (2017). Drugs and the Internet, Issue 8, May Sydney: National Drug and Alcohol Research Centre. 16

18 Summary NPS use low among general population Rates of use elevated among people who use illicit drugs Remains a highly dynamic marketplace, highlighting the importance of drug monitoring systems Appear to seek out NPS that have similar properties to the traditional illicit drugs they are already using Riskier patterns associated with poly NPS use Synthetic opioids starting to appear on crypto markets, although use remains low among sentinel samples 18
