Figures on the most frequent detox treatments, with alcohol being the most common.
Of the 13,779 people who in 2015 began a rehabilitation therapy in Catalonia, 47% did so due to excessive alcohol consumption. The average age for treatment for addiction to this substance is 46. We can consult these data in El País. This reveals the figures handled by the Drug Addiction Care Network (XAD) of the Department of Health. Likewise, cocaine cases fell compared to 2014. Heroin cases have stabilised and care for cannabis addiction has risen slightly.
Cocaine addiction follows alcohol as the most common reason for starting treatment. In 2015, 2,473 people (17.9%) entered an XAD centre to detox from this substance, 134 fewer than in 2014. It is also noteworthy that heroin is the substance that has decreased the most in recent years. In 2015 it stood at 12.2%, with a total of 1,683 cases.
