A closer look

Pharmaceuticals

Heavily abused. Pharmacy burglaries occur routinely throughout the state. Other main sources are illegal dispensing and prescribing by physicians, prescription forgery, “doctor shopping,” as well as drug thefts from pharmacies and hospitals.

Marijuana

One of most abused drugs. Although some marijuana is produced in indoor grow operations, most of it is produced on local properties and state and federal forest lands. Mexican nationals control the large outdoor cultivations plots. Marijuana smuggled from Mexico is available but less desirable. BC Bud from Canada is not widely available, except on the panhandle bordering Canada.

Methamphetamine

Crystal meth widely abused. In-state labs have decreased as Mexican organizations have turned to meth produced in Mexico. While the price has increased, quantity and quantity have decreased, due to U.S. and Mexican law enforcement.

Cocaine

On the rise. Cocaine use in Idaho is primarily limited to affluent users. But crack cocaine is not considered a major threat.

Heroin

Mexican black tar the main form. Brown heroin is found sporadically.

Club drugs

Ecstasy particularly popular with young adults. The drug is primarily available at raves. It seems to originate in Canada, then transported through the state of Washington.

Alcohol

Not a serious problem.
