A recent NIDA study found that 8.5 percent of high school seniors, 4.8 percent of 10th graders, and 3.4 percent of 8th graders have tried cocaine. The same study showed that 3.5 percent of high school seniors and over 2 percent of 8th and 10th graders also tried crack cocaine.

Cocaine is a very popular drug, and popularity does not come without its price. In the United States, cocaine is the second most abused drug and has the second highest dependency rate. In fact, 1.7 million Americans can be classified as having a dependency on or addiction to cocaine. A recent study showed that about 14 percent of all admissions to drug abuse treatment programs were for cocaine abuse. The majority of these individuals (over 70 percent) also smoked crack and abused other drugs.
