5 Studies on Teen Drinking Risk Factors A risk factor is defined as: Occurring before the criterion behavior (temporally precedes it) Statistically associated with increased probability of the criterion behavior occurring Risk factors are not necessarily: Causes or determinants of the behavior/problem Specific or unique to the behavior/problem Always associated with the behavior/problem Risk Factor Typology Palcohol Palcohol, or powdered alcohol, was approved by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, part of the U.S. Treasury Department. Powder packets that can turn water into a mixed drink have already been banned by several states amid fears that Palcohol can be easily abused. Although alcohol in powdered form has been around for decades long before a 1976 patent for it was issued to the General Foods Corporation the announcement of a new product tabbed for the market has pushed the topic back to the forefront. Source: Hawkins et al., 1992; Petraitis et al., 1995 Palcohol Palcohol, when used as directed, by adding six ounces of liquid to it, is equal to a standard mixed drink. Content varies per version but basically, alcohol...and in the cocktail versions, natural flavorings and Sucralose as a sweetener. Palcohol is gluten free. The powder by itself is about 80 calories per bag 5
6 Online Fact Sheets Online and printable fact sheets provide information about commonly abused Rx drugs and their effects. Opioids Also known as: oxy, percs, happy pills, hillbilly heroin, OC, or vikes Opioids - pill form, are prescription medications used to reduce pain Prescription after surgery/injury or to help patients with severe/chronic Taken as prescribed by a medical professional, they are relatively safe effective. Dependence and addiction are still potential risks when taking prescription opioids especially when these drugs are abused. Painkillers are one of the most commonly abused drugs by teens, after tobacco, alcohol, and marijuana. Taking someone else s prescription opioid medication. Taking a prescription opioid medication in a way other than prescribed Taking the opioid prescription to get high Prescription Drugs After marijuana and alcohol, prescription drugs are the most commonly abused substances by Americans age 14 and older. Teens abuse prescription drugs for a number of reasons, such as to get high, to stop pain, or because they think it will help them with school work. Most teens get prescription drugs they abuse from friends and relatives, sometimes without the person knowing. Boys and girls tend to abuse some types of prescription drugs for different reasons. For example, boys are more likely to abuse prescription stimulants to get high, while girls tend to abuse them to stay alert or to lose weight. Cough/Cold Medicine Also known as: robotripping, robo, tussin, triple c, dex, skittles, candy, velvet, and drank Cough syrups and capsules containing dextromethorphan (DXM). These over-the-counter (OTC) meaning they can be bought without a prescription cough medicines are safe for stopping coughs during a cold if you take them as directed. Taking more than the recommended amount can produce euphoria (a relaxed pleasurable feeling) and dissociative effects (like you are detached from your body). Promethazine-codeine cough syrup. These prescription medications contain an opioid drug called codeine, which stops coughs, but when taken in higher doses produces euphoria. Cannabis Marijuana - Also known as: weed, pot, bud, grass, herb, Mary Jane, MJ, reefer, skunk, boom, gangster, kif, chronic, and ganja Marijuana is a mixture of the dried and shredded leaves, stems, seeds, and flowers of Cannabis sativa the hemp plant. The mixture can be green, brown, or gray. Stronger forms of the drug include sinsemilla (sin-seh-meyah), hashish ( hash for short), and hash oil. Of the approximately 400 chemicals in marijuana, delta-9- tetrahydrocannabinol, known as THC, is responsible for many of the drug s psychotropic (mind-altering) effects. It s this chemical that changes how the brain work The amount of THC in marijuana has increased over the past few decades from an average of about 4 percent for marijuana and 7.5 percent for sinsemilla in the early 1990 s to almost 10 percent for marijuana and 16 percent for sinsemilla in s, distorting how the mind perceives the world. 6
7 Spice Also known as: K2, fake weed, Bliss, Black Mamba, Bombay Blue, Genie, Zohai, Yucatan Fire, Skunk, and Moon Rocks Spice is a mix of herbs (shredded plant material) and manmade chemicals with mind-altering effects. It is often called synthetic marijuana because some of the chemicals in it are similar to ones in marijuana; but its effects are sometimes very different from marijuana, and frequently much stronger. It is most often labeled Not for Human Consumption and disguised as incense. Because the chemicals used in Spice have a high potential for abuse and no medical benefit, the Drug Enforcement Administration has made many of the active chemicals most frequently found in Spice illegal. However, the people who make these products try to avoid these laws by using different chemicals in their mixtures. Sellers of Spice products try to lead people to believe they are natural and therefore harmless, but they are neither. Bath Salts Also known as: Bloom, Cloud Nine, Vanilla Sky, White Lightning, and Scarface Bath salts is the name given to a family of drugs that have one or more manmade chemicals related to cathinone. Cathinone is an amphetamine-like stimulant found naturally in the khat plant. Chemically, they are similar to other amphetamines such as methamphetamine and to MDMA (Ecstasy or Molly). Common manmade cathinones found in bath salts include 3,4- methylenedioxypyrovalerone (MDPV), mephedrone ( Drone, Meph, or Meow Meow ), and methylone, but there are many others. Use of bath salts sometimes causes severe intoxication (a person seems very drunk or out of it ) and dangerous health effects. There are also reports of people becoming psychotic (losing touch with reality) and violent. Although it is rare, there have been several cases where bath salts have been the direct cause of death. In addition, people who believe they are taking drugs such as MDMA (Molly or Ecstasy) may be getting bath salts instead. Methylone, a common chemical in bath salts, has been substituted for MDMA in capsules sold as Molly in some areas. 7
8 Inhalants Current, past-year, and lifetime use of inhalants among 10th and 12th graders is at its lowest levels in the history of the survey. Rates of inhalant use are traditionally highest among the youngest adolescents (unlike most other drugs); in 2014, 5.3 percent of 8th graders reported using inhalants in the past year, down from 8.1 percent in 2009 and 12.8 percent in 1995, when use peaked. Methamphetamine Also known as: Meth, Speed, chalk, and tina ; or for crystal meth, ice, crank, glass, fire, and go fast Methamphetamine known as meth is a very addictive stimulant drug. Stimulants are a class of drugs that can boost mood, increase feelings of wellbeing, increase energy, and make you more alert but they also have dangerous effects like raising heart rate and blood pressure. Methamphetamine is a manmade, white, bitter-tasting powder. Sometimes it's made into a white pill or a shiny, white or clear rock called a crystal. Most of the meth used in the United States comes from superlabs big illegal laboratories that make the drug in large quantities. But it is also made in small labs using cheap, over-the-counter ingredients such as pseudoephedrine, which is common in cold medicines. Other chemicals, some of them toxic, are also involved in making methamphetamine. Methamphetamine is classified as a Schedule II drug, meaning it has high potential for abuse and is available only through a prescription that cannot be refilled. What is Prevention?

9 How Do I Know if Someone Has a Drug Problem? There are questions people can ask to gauge whether or not a person has a drug problem. These may not mean that someone is addicted, but answering yes to any of these questions may suggest a developing problem, which could require follow up with a professional drug treatment specialist. These include: Have you ever ridden in a car driven by someone (including yourself) who had been using alcohol or drugs? Do you ever use alcohol or drugs to relax, to feel better about yourself, or to fit in? Do you ever use alcohol or drugs when you are alone? Do you ever forget things you did while using alcohol or drugs? Do family or friends ever tell you to cut down on your use of alcohol or drugs? Have you ever gotten into trouble while you were using alcohol or drugs? 9
