RESUMEN
La drogadicción es una pandemia que no solo afecta al adicto, sino a su grupo familiar y a toda la sociedad, constituyendo un problema de relevancia para la Salud Pública. La prevalencia del consumo de drogas se encuentra en constante aumento, afectando a la población económicamente activa y destruyendo la base productiva de la nación. Las razones de su explosión epidémica incluyen múltiples factores biológicos y sociales, por lo que su abordaje terapéutico requiere de una visión holística y un trabajo interdisciplinario. El éxito para controlar esta pandemia radica en la reducción de la demanda y el consumo. La familia, los medios de difusión y el sistema educativo constituyen los tres grandes ejes estratégicos para su prevención.
