摘要
Background and ObjectivesBath salts are new drugs which have received extensive media attention. However, national studies in the US have not investigated prevalence or correlates of use. MethodsData were examined from Monitoring the Future, a representative sample of US high school seniors (2012-2013, N=8,604). ResultsOnly 1.1% of high school seniors used bath salts in the last year and the strongest correlate of use was use of other drugs. Discussion and ConclusionsBath salt use is not very prevalent, but users of other drugs are at highest risk for use. Scientific SignificanceWe must continue to monitor new drugs in order to inform prevention and quickly detect potential epidemics.
