The Irish Prison Service has launched a free confidential phone line to combat the illegal trafficking of drugs and weapons into prisons.
Tablets such as vallium are currently the most prevalent drug abused in Irish prisons.
Heroin use among prisoners is not as common as it once was.
However, weapons such as toothbrushes fitted with a double razor blade are regularly smuggled into prisons.
