DRUG MISUSE |
| Drug Misuse is the accidental or purposeful qualitatively definable administration of a substance in which the resulting effect produced is unanticipated, unwanted, and does not result in any intended resolution, independent of any measurable quantities. Drug misuse is most common among young children, senior citizens, and physicians in which there is the lack of a physician-patient partnership, but it is as pervasive as drug abuse. It is largely an educational and communication disorder. |
