It was also found that most of those affected came from the urban-marginal sector, were students and had a low to medium social status, and had already presented several previous episodes of drug use and had not sought help.It was determined that most of them were admitted to the hospital for acute intoxication, followed by abstinence syndrome and finally dependence syndrome.Therefore, it is important to strengthen continuing education plans and psychological support in public and private schools and colleges, to family members and adolescents for the prevention of indiscriminate substance abuse and its functional and organic repercussions, as well as the timely identification by parents or family members of warning signs in order to avoid fatal cases.
