Only one-fifth of those who admitted using cannabis do so for ‘medicinal purposes’.
THE LARGEST DRUG survey in the world has questioned Irish people about their use of illegal and prescription drugs.
The Global Drug Survey does not take a cross-section of every demographic but rather looks to probe trends and attitudes among people who have had some experience using drugs or alcohol.
More than 2,000 people responded to that callout – with some 1,455 of those saying they had taken cannabis in the last year.
The most popular method – by far – was smoking a joint, followed by smoking a blunt or inhaling through a bong or pipe.
One third of users had smoked on 100 days or more of the last 12 months.
