USA TODAY berichtet in zwei Artikeln unter den Tiiteln "Ecstasy use down" bzw. "Teen Prescription Drug abuse up", dass amerikanische Teenager nach neuesten Erkenntnissen immer weniger Ecstasy nehmen und statt dessen zu verschreibungspflichtigen Schmerzmitteln wie Vicodin greifen. An diese Mittel ist einfacher heranzukommen, nicht selten im Medizinschränkchen der Eltern, oder über Webservices, die die Medikamente nicht selten illegal ohne Rezept und Altersnachweis verschicken.
"Generation Rx has arrived". (Rx steht hier für "Rezept" )
Etwa 18 % der Jugendlichen (das entspricht 4,3 Millionen) haben schon Erfahrungen mit Vicodin, dem wohl bekanntesten Opiat Amerikas, etwa 9 % haben rezeptfreie (OTC) Hustensirups benutzt, um high zu werden. Dagegen sank die Zahl der Marihuanaverwender von stattlichen 42 % vor knapp 6 Jahren auf 37 % heute; Ecstasy sank von 12 auf 9 % und der Gebrauch von Methamphetamin von 12 auf 8 %.
