Notes:

 : indicates data not available 

 Drug specific percentages are of clients whose primary drug and usual route of administration is known. Total injecting considers all the injection cases regardless of the primary drug being known or not. 

 Injecting as a route of administration is not reported for ecstasy, cannabis and other drugs. 

 When proportion of clients by main drug is 0, ‘% of injectors’ is blank. If no data is available, the symbol ":" is used. 

 (1) Last data available refer to 2005. Data refer only to outpatient and low-threshold agencies. Data do not cover Brussels Capital Region. 

 (2) Most of injection cases have been reported under unknown primary drug. 

 (3) Amphetamines refer to stimulants in general. Data on route of administration refer to primary and non primary drugs. 

 (4) 'Speedball' is included in the category 'Other substances'. 

 (5) Last data available refer to 2006. 

 (6) Amphetamines refer to stimulants in general. 

 (7) Data on first treatments (breakdown by drug and route of administration) were not reported for 2007 as the figures were too small. 

 (8) Last data available refer to 2006. 

 (9) In the case of Austria, up to 2005 data only refer to clients in substitution treatment, using opioids as primary drug. Since 2006, data are based on the new DOKLI data collection system.
