“Drug Use or Abuse” focuses on the differences between utilizing drugs which have been prescribed by a doctor versus illicit drug use and abuse. Prescription drugs are viewed across shelving in a drug store (:27) with close shots of the antibiotic Nydrazid as well as others produced by Horton and Converse (:30). A pharmacist fills prescriptions (:39) and a street drug dealer offers pills to youth (:53). The film dictates that a doctor will prescribe you such drugs for medical purposes and that the viewer may also be approached by someone other than a doctor offering street drugs in their lifetime. The title screen appears at (1:02). “Drug Use or Abuse” was produced by Films West Inc (1:06). An anecdote shows a man known as Susan’s father as he runs around a track (1:15). He is able to lead a healthier life due to prescription drugs which treat his diabetes (1:31). A close shot of his prescription reveals it to be Orinase (1:43). Various prescription drugs follow (1:51) including the sleeping pill Sominex (2:08). Other substances such as caffeine (2:45) and alcohol (2:24) are also considered drugs as they alter the bodies functions. A young boy replaces a spray paint can on a shelf in a garage (2:46). These and other chemicals such as Carbide must be kept out of reach (2:54). A diagram shows the different effects stimulants and depressants have on the body and mind (3:47). A patient lay in a hospital bed whom had been given a depressant prior to surgery (4:03). A hospital nurse measures out a specific portion of medication (4:39). A doctor then writes out a prescription to be filled at a pharmacy and taken at home (5:04). This prescription is then shown being filled by a pharmacist (5:09). Du Pont multi-surface house hold glue is noted as it is another substance which can be ‘huffed’ (6:09). Illicit drugs such as marijuana (6:13), heroin and LSD are shown in montage. Reasons as to why someone might turn to drugs are discussed including sheer boredom, emotional or mental health issues (6:40) as well as peer pressure (6:52). A diagram follows depicting the damage which can be caused by incorrect use including damage to organs and even death (7:22). The film then cuts out abruptly on the drug known as LSD (7:44).

LOL, in the 1980's as a young man in my early 20's I got hooked on Percocets....I was eating 6- 8 every 5 hours about 3-4 times a day,I'd go through a script of 30 every day.if I didn't have them I'd be miserable.. Body aches,diarrhea, sweats,ect,ect..major constipation also.I'd have a movement hopefully 1 time a week... That went on for about 7 years,than I'd eat VicodineE.S.,80mg oxy Contains,than when that got to expensive to maintain I switched to heroin for another decade almost, than quit cold turkey,I was a miserable wreck for almost 3 months,those were the hardest days of my life. Than in 2003 at age 41,I quit all drugs and have been clean since, 19 years and counting.
Oxy Contins I meant, not contains
Good for you.
Good one mate. 20 years now myself . Had a 1000$ a day habit for well over a decade . I started on pills too, then heroin and everything else i could get into my veins . I was an I.V user, Go big or go home was my mantra . How im still alive is anyone's guess? I find sobriety one hell of a drug now, reality these days and this Clown Circus we have going is quite the trip . Cheers mate .

That nurse is a bad acid trip in itself😬
I can remember Vics formula 44 w/ codeine. Over the counter in the early 60s!
I know where I'm going for time travel
Cough syrup with codeine! Those were the days!
I remember when you could sign for it without a prescription.
Like scotch and soda!
The Soundtrack for this reminded me of old NFL Football Films. Great Stuff !
Up in da mornin...Down in de evening....Oh man...I cant take it no more....Ild have five of da blue ones and three of the green ones...Oh Bro......No way.
My mother, may G_D rest her soul, was a RN, would warn me that drug dealers would pretend to be your friend, give you free drugs until you got addicted, then slowly jack up the price to market rate. She warned me not to "look for pennies" (showing loneliness) by looking down on the sidewalk. She also told me she would rather that I have no friends than the wrong kind of friends. Interestingly, at age 50, I looked up my high school friends, who did not indulge in drugs when we were in high school, that half of them died drug-related deaths!
I'm happy for you dude,and good advice from your mom also.my mother told me the same thing too.but I didn't listen.I just loved the feeling of pain pills,all opiates really.and dope..luckily I never overdosed though.
Very healthy
As a nurse, I found this entertaining. Where’s the rest of the video?
the poverty and unemployment who is the first responsible for my addiction for 10 years but after I got sick the docs advised me not to get back for this vice .
Drugs are bad. Drugs are bad, m'kay.
