1 All figures in this table exclude penal establishment inmates and information received from needle exchanges.
2 The total drugs reported is greater than the number of new individual patients/clients because individuals may have reported use of more than one drug. Therefore percentages may add up to more than 100%.
3 An illicit drug is any drug that has not been prescribed for the user. This includes illegal drugs, volatile substances, inappropriate use of over the counter medicines and alcohol.
4 At least one drug has been reported in the illicit drug profile.
