DRUG SCENARIO IN THE PHILIPPINES
Background Information for Learners
Drug abuse in this country is a serious problem because it is not just the lives of those
who become hooked but also the lives of those in the family and the community that are
destroyed. According to the Armed Forces of the Philippines’ Narcotics Command, ages 15 to
29 years are commonly hooked to drugs.
Substance use and abuse is a growing problem in the Philippines. According to the
International Narcotics Control Board (INCB), an international board monitoring agency, the
Philippines is listed as one of the countries in Southeast Asia where drug trafficking is growing
in numbers.
In the Philippines, drug use and abuse is a social and health concern. Poverty has
become an increasing cause for involvement in the illegal drug trade. Foreign drug syndicates
take advantage and exploit the poor and use promises of “easy money” to entice the people to
serve as couriers and runners.
According to the 2012 statistics available in the Dangerous Drugs Board Website, the
most common type of substance of abuse among Filipinos are: Methamphetamine
Hydrochloride (shabu), Cannabis sativa (marijuana), Inhalants (Contact Cement Adhesive).
Common Concepts in Drug Education
Drugs- are any substances or chemicals which when taken into the body either through nasal,
oral, transdermal or intravenous way have psychological, emotional and behavioral effects on
a person.
Drugs of abuse- are drugs commonly abused by users. In the Philippines the three drugs
commonly abuse are shabu, marijuana and inhalants.
Drug dependence- is a cluster of psychological, behavioral, and cognitive phenomena of

variable intensity in which the use of a drug takes on a high priority thereby creating a strong
desire to take the substance.
Drug misuse- is the use of a substance for non-medicinal purposes.
Drug tolerance- is the condition of the body to adapt to the effects of substances thus requiring
an even larger amount of the substance.

The Risk and Protective Factors of Using Drugs
Risk factors are those that contribute to drug abuse. Risk factors are those that make
drug use more likely. Protective factors prevent drug use. Prevention programs are often being
designed to enhance “protective factors”. Protective factors are those associated with reduced
potential for drug use.
Research has shown that many of the same factors apply to other behaviors such as
youth violence, delinquency, school dropout, risky sexual behaviors, and teen pregnancy.
The use, misuse, and abuse of drugs are the result of various factors surrounding a
person. These factors either increase or decrease the possibility of a person to use drugs.
Protective factors decrease the chances of using, misusing, and abusing drugs.
These factors are composed of influences in different domains of life.

ACTIVITY 2: “BE THE JUDGE!”
Read the Editorial article below and answer the questions in your answer sheet.
Though it seems that the society is winning in the battle against illegal drug use and
abuse, I believe that we are still a long way from declaring victory in the battle. Teenagers are
still victimized by drug addiction. Everyone complains, but only a few propose ways to
completely stop drug use and abuse. The following are some suggestions to stop this terrible
and frightening habit.
First, the film industry should stop glamorizing drug addiction. Drug addicts and drug
pushers should not come out as heroes and saints in films and television programs. They should
realize that young people look up at these actors and actresses. What they portray on camera
seems something that looks cool and good for the young viewers. The government and the
actors’ guild should come up with a law banning the industry from showing drugs of all forms
on television and film.
Second, the government should have strict laws and policies on drug trafficking and
possession of drugs and their paraphernalia. We should follow our neighboring countries which
include death penalty as sanction to drug traffickers. Right now, the Philippines serves as a
drop-off point for drugs coming from other countries. Drug laboratories have been discovered
in residential houses and old abandoned factories. Foreign members of syndicates have been
caught and charged by the authorities. These are proofs that there is a need to review and revise
our present laws on drug abuse and trafficking.
Third, horrific videos of people dying from drug related illnesses should be used by the
government as advocacy materials for students to see and know the real deal about drug use
12
and abuse. If students will understand the ugly truth about drugs through these advocacies, they
will no longer start to take drugs. The approach will be effective and the experience will be
worthwhile.
These three suggestions are more than enough to change the scenario. My parting words
are, “to think several times before acting out foolishly”.

ABUSE
Recreational drug use is the use of a psychoactive drug to induce an altered state of
consciousness for pleasure, by modifying the perceptions, feelings and emotions of the user.
When a drug enters the user’s body, it induces intoxicating effect.
Drug abuse is when you use legal or illegal substances in ways you shouldn’t. You
might take more than the regular dose of pills or use someone else’ prescription. You may
abuse drugs to feel good, ease stress, or avoid reality.
People give several reasons for taking drugs. Some believe that these drugs can make
them feel and look good. Certain drugs of abuse produce pleasure or euphoria. Euphoria is the
high sensation brought about by the chemical reactions of the neurotransmitters in the brain.
Thus, drugs affect your brain process.
Continuous and prolonged drug use has a very bad effect in a person. It can alter his
behavior, and his mental, physical and psychological condition. Most importantly, drug
dependence results in drug abuse, drug tolerance, problems with society and law, withdrawal
symptoms, severe health problems, poor of quality of life and eventually death.
Effects are not always the same with drug users. A small amount of a substance may
create a feeling of pleasure to a person but the same amount may cause restlessness, stress or
even immediate death to another person. We have different reactions to drugs and substances.
Let us analyze the different myths misconceptions about substance use and abuse. Let
us learn to describe the signs and symptoms of drug use and abuse among Filipino teenagers.
Myths and Misconceptions about Drugs of Abuse

Myths and Misconceptions Facts about Drugs of Abuse
Drugs of abuse improve memory Drugs of abuse shut down proper brain
functioning. Certain drugs stimulate the
brain but do not really help improve memory.
Most drug users claim they think better and
clearly after taking drugs but tests on
performance and cognitive have proven that
they have performed worst.
Drugs of abuse do not improve memory

Drugs of abuse help in the digestion of Certain drug of abuse stimulates the
food production of stomach acids. Constant
exposure to higher than normal acid level
damages stomach linings which can result to
ulcers.
Drugs of abuse do not help in the digestion

of food
Drugs of abuse are not the solution to
Drugs of abuse make a person bold and problems and worries people encounter.
brave Some people believe that using drugs
eliminate one’s problems and worries in life.
The truth is drugs of abuse will only worsen
the scenario and further and more problems
some of which are even harder to solve to
solve.
Drugs of abuse worsen life’s problems and

worries.
Drugs of abuse heat up the body Drugs users believe that certain drugs cause
the blood to become warmer which make the
body temperature rise. In cold countries,
drugs are used to heat the body. The truth
about this is far from reality. Drugs dilate
blood vessels in the skin which make the
blood to flow nearer to the skin and enhance
convection of heat from the body to the
outside environment.
Drugs of abuse do not heat up; instead they

make the body lose heat faster than normal.
Profile of a Drug Abuser
The Dangerous Drugs Board listed the following signs and symptoms of drug abuse. It
is important to note that having a few of these signs does not immediately make a person a drug
user. Therefore, observations of physical, mental, emotional and social behaviors must be
carefully done to confirm if a person is a drug user.
Below are some of the signs and symptoms of drug use:
● declining interest in studies and work
● identification with known drug users
` ● negative outlook in life
● uncontrolled irritation
● reddish eyes
● foul body smell
● convulsions
● brown stains on fingertips
