Heroin and tranquillisers are the most common drugs resulting in treatment after alcohol and cannabis in Cork and Kerry.
A new report shows that a quarter of drug users receiving treatment in the south report problematic use of four different substances.
The 2010 annual report of the Southern Regional Drugs Task Force shows that nearly 60% of those being treated are teenagers — more than half of them aged 17 or under.
