Alaska Drug Rehab

There were 4,006 admissions to drug and alcohol rehab centers in Alaska during 2003.

According to 2004-2005 national survey data, approximately 18,000 (3.5%) Alaska citizens reported needing drug rehabilitation programs but not receiving treatment for illicit drug use within the past year.

The drug situation in Alaska is as grim as any other state, showing a clear-cut need for drug rehabilitation programs that can help.

Cocaine is readily available in most areas of Alaska and is seen with great frequency in powder form. Crack cocaine is available in Alaska's major urban areas, such as Anchorage and Fairbanks. Powder cocaine usually sells for $100-$150/gram and is primarily ingested by snorting. Crack cocaine is sold in small rock quantities for $20 and is usually smoked.

Small amounts of black tar heroin are available in Alaska. Furthermore, OxyContin, a drug with effects similar to heroin, has become the drug of choice for heroin abusers in the state.

Marijuana is available throughout Alaska. There is a high demand for Alaskan-grown marijuana because of its high THC content.

Methamphetamine is one of Alaska’s primary drug threats. Methamphetamine continues to be readily available in the state. Further intelligence indicates that Southeast Asian methamphetamine tablets known as 'yaba,' reportedly manufactured in Burma and Laos, are becoming available in Alaska.

MDMA, LSD and GHB are all available in Alaska.

Prescription drugs - The abuse and trafficking of oxycodone, hydrocodone and anabolic steroids continues to be a concern in Alaska.
