First slide

26th June, the International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, is to remind us the dangerous consequences associated with drugs, both illicit drugs like opioids  caanabinoids, stimulants, as well as licit drugs like alcohol and tobacco.  No drugs of abuse are safe. One should avoid experimenting with any of the drugs since these have a high abuse potential. All psychoactive drugs can cause serious harm to the body as well as the mind. It is important to add here that drug dependece is a medical condition and needs medical help. If anyone known to you has drug related problem,  seek medical help. It is possible to treat drug dependence. Treatment facilities are now available at most big hospitals both in government and private sector.
