Figure PPP-1. Indexed trends in EU retail prices for major drug types, adjusting for inflation, 2005–10

Year	2005	2006	2007	2008	2009	2010
Cannabis resin	100	96	101	98	104	106
Herbal cannabis	100	98	104	110	106	109
Cocaine	100	97	93	85	83	82
Amphetamines	100	103	99	94	87	90
Ecstasy	100	100	88	86	81	83
LSD	100	101	100	95	95	91

Notes:

1. The trends represent the available information on national street-level prices for each drug in the EU Member States, weighted by country population sizes to form an overall EU trend. Prices have been adjusted for national inflation rates (base year 2005) and all series indexed to a base of 100 in 2005.

2. Countries missing drug price information for two or more consecutive years are not included in the trend calculations: the trend for LSD is based on twelve countries (83 % of the EU population 15-64), amphetamine on sixteen countries (86 % of the EU population 15-64), cocaine on seventeen countries (88 % of the EU population 15-64), ecstasy on eighteen countries (89 % of the EU population 15-64), herbal cannabis on eighteen countries (89 % of the EU population 15-64), and cannabis resin on sixteen countries (79 % of the EU population 15-64). Trend for heroin and other drugs are not available due to insufficient data to perform representative analysis.

3. Additionally, where 2010 data are missing (twenty-two cases) 2009 prices are used; for missing 2005 data (thirty-four cases) 2006 prices are used; data missing for other years (twenty-six cases) have been interpolated from adjacent years.
