Notes:

 : indicates data not available 

 This table presents data on 15- to 16-year-old school students obtained from ESPAD surveys. 

 Caution is required comparing figures due to methodological limitations. For methods and definitions see Methods and definitions: youth and the schools population. 

 (1) ESPAD 2007 data for Belgium refer only to Flanders. ESPAD 2007 Germany figures are based in seven regions only (Bavaria, Brandenburg, Berlin, Hesse, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Saarland and Thuringia). ESPAD 2003 Turkey figures are based on one major city in each of 6 different regions (Adana, Ankara, Diyarbakir, Istanbul, Izmir and Samsun). 

 (2) ESPAD 2007 data for Denmark has limited comparability. 

 (3) Data included in 1995 ESPAD report but not strictly comparable (based on an earlier survey). 

 (4) LSD and other hallucinogens: includes LSD only.
