Report:

Supplemental materials for this report:

• Press Release

• Short Report: The NSDUH Report:  Nonmedical Use of Pain Relievers in Substate Regions: 2004 to 2006

• High/Low Tables  (HTML) (PDF format): Used for testing the difference between the highest and lowest prevalence rates in substate regions within each State.
  
  
• Age Group Tables (HTML) (PDF format): Data tables showing estimates by age group (12-17, 18-25, 26 or older, and 18 or older).
  

  Comparison Table (HTML) (PDF format): Used to determine where the prevalence rates for each substate region falls in the distribution of all substate regions in the nation by age group

  Suppression Criteria (HTML) (PDF format): Presents the criteria used to suppress unreliable substate region prevalence rates by age group

• Change Tables: (HTML) (PDF format): Data tables showing 2002-2004 and 2004-2006 estimates for age 12 or older along with a p-value for determining if the change between 2002-2004 and 2004-2006 is statistically significant. Only estimates corresponding to substate areas that are defined consistently across these two time periods are shown.

• Substate Region Definitions by State (HTML):   Maps and tables showing substate regions (also included in Section D of the full report)

• State-Specific files:   Separate State-level files showing tables and maps of substate region estimates for age 12 or older
