The National Drug and Alcohol Research Centre is not primarily an information centre and has a limited ability to provide drug information to the general public. However, due to great demand we have produced a series of fact sheets on a range of drugs and statistical data which may prove useful.
If you are in need of specific drug information and/or resources you will need to contact the alcohol and drug information service in your state and territory. These services are staffed by trained counsellors who can assist you with information, appropriate treatment and counselling. The majority of these services run 24 hours a day.
