Abstract

Author(s):

The financial burden of smoking drugs encompasses a myriad of economic implications that extend far beyond individual expenditure. This study delves into the multifaceted nature of this burden, exploring not only the direct costs associated with purchasing drugs but also the broader societal costs, including healthcare expenses, lost productivity, and criminal justice expenditures. Through comprehensive analysis, this research sheds light on the staggering economic impact of drug smoking, highlighting the need for targeted interventions to alleviate this financial strain on both individuals and society as a whole.
