Editor's Notes

  1. IF USE CLOSELY STUDY THE THIS GLOBAL BURDEN OF DISEASE STUDY PUBLISHED IN 2013, THE TOP TEN CAUSE OF DEATH IN INDIA ARE LINKED TO DRUGS, EXCEPT DIARRROAL DISEASES. IDS, COPD, STROKE, TB. PNEUMONIA, SUIDCIDE, ROAD INJURIES HYPERTENTION OR DIABETES- ALL HAVE DRUG ABUSE AS PREDISPOSING, AGGRAVATING OR PRECIPITATING FACTOR
  2. WORKING I FIELD OF HIV FOR LAST 15 YEARS, I LEARNED THAT I COULD TRACE THE HISTORY HIV VIRUS TO 1983 WHEN IT WAS FIRST FOUND TO BE CAUSE OF AIDS. WHAT ABOUT DRUGS? AND I TRIED TO DIG INTO THE HISTORY AND FOUND THAT….
  3. WE ALWAYS HAD A STRONG H/O OF DRUG USE IF NOT ABUSE IN OUR COUNTRY. ITS MENTIONED IN OUR HINDU MYTH…..
  4. BE IT MARRIAGE, BIRTH DEATH, DRUGS LIFE AFFEM IS OFFERED TO THE GUESTS
  5. WE HAD LEDAL BHANG AND OPIUM SALE OUTLETS
  6. WHY WE MORTALS, EVEN GOD IS OFFERED ALCOHOL IN OUR COUNTRY
  7. BUT AFTER THIS SMALL INCREMENTAL CHAGES OVER CENTUREIS WHICH SHAPED OUR DRUG USING PATTERN, LAST DECADE SAW A SUDDEN TECHTOMIC MOVEMENT TO CAUSE DRUG TSUNAMI IN OUR LAND
  8. This has changed. AND THIS SLIDE EXEMPLIFIES THE CHANGE TO ITS CORE While we have grown up with Pankaj udhas advice of “maza lena hai peene ka to kam kam dheere dheere pi - 2chalega umrabhar peene ka mausam dheere dheere pi”, TODAY WE HAVE YO YO , TELLING “Chaar bottle Vodka,Kaam mera roz kaNa mujhko koi roke,Na kisi ne roka.. Main rahoon saari raat in the barDaaru piyun lagaatarEk aadhi sab pee lete hainMain to piyun botal chaar
  9. And that,s reflected in our form
  10. In place
  11. In style
  12. For a generation that craves quick and easy solutions, IN AN ERA OF TECHNOLICALLY DOMINATED CYBER SAVVY ERA WHOSE PHILOSOHY IS TAKE WHAT U WANT AND LEAVE WHAT U DON’T, these drugs appeal to the needs of today’s societies and have become part of modern lifestyles—recreationally and occupationally. SO SUBSTANCE ABUSE HAS TAKEN A
  13.  World Drug Report 2014.The latest available data, from 2004, estimates that 10.7 million Indians–more than the population of Sweden–are drug users: 8.7 million consume cannabis and 2 million use opiates, according to a National Survey Report by the UN Office on Drugs and Crime and the Indian Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment. Mizoram, Punjab and Manipur are among the states where people are most vulnerable to drug abuse. One reason could be their proximity to porous international borders and international drug-trafficking zones, such as the “Golden Triangle” (Myanmar, Thailand and Laos) and “Golden Crescent” (Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan). 67% of rural households in Punjab have one drug or alcohol addict, while 70% of young men are addicted to drugs or alcohol, according to a government report based on surveys. In Manipur, there are an estimated  45,000-50,000 drug addicts of who nearly half are injecting drug users. Studies have also revealed that 12% of drug addicts are below the age of 15, as are 31% in the age group of 16-25 years and 56% in the age group of 25-35 years.  According to estimates, there are approximately 70 million drug abusers in India. Data on drugs seizure by the Narcotics Control Bureau shows that consumption and smuggling of synthetic drugs, which are much more dangerous and addictive than natural ones, has been steadily increasing while that of natural drugs has been decreasing. Between 2009 and 2012, smuggling and consumption of cocaine and ephedrine increased by over 250% and that of morphine increased by over 500% while among natural extracts, only opium saw an increase over the same period, that too only because opium is used to manufacture heroin. The first study we looked at was conducted National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR). It was the first nationwide, comprehensive study on the subject with data collected for 4,024 child substance abusers from 135 sites across India. While this study does not report the prevalence of drug use among Indian children, it does shed light on the pattern, profile and correlates of substance use among Indian children. (For the purpose of this study, anyone 18 years of age or younger was considered a child.) What’s your poison? The NCPCR study indicates that the substances most abused by children in India are: Of all child substance abusers, most had used these substances in the last 1 month Substance          % of child substance abusers Tobacco                      75% Alcohol                       57% Inhalants                   31% Cannabis                    29% (Source: National Commission for Protection of Child Rights. Numbers represent the percentage of children who had used the substance in the last month.)
  14. OUR NOTION OF DRUG ABUSEE IS THAT OF A DISHIVELLED, JOBLESS, PERSON ON THE STREET WITH PROBABLY A CRIMINAL BACK GROUND
  15. OR THOS WHO SHINE ON PAGE 3 , BADE BAAP KI BIGDI AULAT
  16. The “new urban junkie” has got a whole new profile: young, educated, working, upper and middle classes.- PROFESSIONALS, STUDENT, WOMEN. It’s a profile aided by technology. His philosophy of life is shaped by cyberspace: take what you like and leave what you don’t
  17. THEY seek chemical comfort to ease life’s stresses and strains—do a job better, stay awake longer, feel relaxed. A growing tribe of the young workforce in our call centres is taking to drugs, says the UN.

  19. WHILE WE WERE BUSY IN UPDATING ABOUT THE NEW DRUGS ON HYPERTENTION AND DIABETES, SEE THE NEW DRUGS OF ABUSE THAT HAVE FLOODED THE MARKET AND WE MIGHT HAVE NOT EVEN HEARD ABOUT THEM
  20. WE UPDATE OURSELVES OF ANY NEW MOLECURE THAT ENTERS THE MARKET FOR TREATMENT OF DIABETES, HT, IHD AND HAVE REGULAR CMES FOR THE SAME. THERE WE 193 NEW PSYCHOACTIVE DRUGS AND WE ARE NOR EVEN AWARE
  21. WEE ARE USED TO PARA CPM DEXA FAMO COCKTAILS “Cough syrup and rum, pepsi or coke, with crushed spasmo proxyvon tablets and a bit of iodex.”
  22. FOLLOWED BY DELHI
  23. WE DON’T REQUIRE THESE PHYSICAL CHANNELS SMUGLLING DRUGS. AS THESE CONTINUE TO EXISTS, WE HAVE NOW INTERNET AND COURIER SERVICES FOR BUYING AND SELLING DRUGS AS IF THIS WAS NOT ENOUGH The World Drug Report says India has of late become a hub of drugs sold through illegal Internet pharmacies. For the first time in India’s history, drugs have come out in the open; they are visible and not illegal but they are also dangerous.
  24. What is dark net? It is an encrypted part of the Internet that can only be accessed by specific software. While this can be used to provide privacy against mass surveillance or bypass government censorship, it is also increasingly being used to peddle paedophilia, illegal pornography, drugs and other contraband. By routing connections through a chain of users, the IP address of the user is kept hidden. India is estimated to have between 500,000 to 1 million daily users of this browser (Oxford Internet Institute) With just a few clicks on his computer, Anuj is in the “dark net”, free of law enforcement agencies and regulation. “What everyone believes to be the Internet is just a superficial, miniscule fraction called the surface Internet. Dark net is the vast portion of the iceberg that fails to be seen. All sorts of illegal activities take place, and that’s where I order my drugs from,” he says.
  25. Bitcoin This cryptocurrency has no centralised authority. Encryption makes online transactions between two parties anonymous. Creation and sale of bitcoins has become a big market. One bitcoin is worth around $265 (around Rs. 16,000). Bitcoin is a form of digital currency, created and held electronically. No one controls it. Bitcoins aren’t printed, like dollars or euros – they’re produced by people, and increasingly businesses, running computers all around the world, using software that solves mathematical problems. It’s the first example of a growing category of money known as cryptocurrency.
  26. I AM NOT SURPRISED TO FIND THAT THIS ISSUE HAS COME UNDER MODI’ S RADAR
  27. WE HAVE BEEN ON THE FOREFRONT TO TAKE ANY MEDICAL CHALLENGE THAT OUR SOCIETY FACES BE IT PLAGUE, SARS, DENGUE, CHIKUNGUNIA , DIABETES, HT, IHD, STROKE -
  28. Its proven beyond doubt that
  29. If we actively listen, u would hear silent cry for help. OTHERWISE IT’S TERI BHI CHOOP MERI BHI CHOOP
  30. That’s true, so for the first time in the new policy for prevention for drug use that our union ministry for social justive and empowerment is working on, there is a clause for making addiction medicine a part of undergraduate curriculum
  31. LETS TOGETHER GET THE KNOWLEDGE, SHARPEN OUR SKILLS AND MOULD OUR ATTITUDE TOWARDS DRUG USE
  32. Thoda sa lift karade
  33. YS HAUSLA KAISE JHUKE YE AARJOO KAISE RUKE Manjil mushkil to kya Bundla sahil to kya
