Trying alcohol and drugs for the first time is common among adolescents, and approximately 5% will develop problematic patterns of use that meet criteria for a Substance Use Disorder (SUD). Further, over 90% of adults with a SUD began using alcohol or drugs during adolescence. Earlier initiation of substance use corresponds to a greater lifetime risk of adverse effects including increased mental health burden, school-related problems, physical health concerns, and neurocognitive impairments. As such, it is critical that clinicians understand the current treatments available for adolescent SUDs, as decreasing or eliminating maladaptive patterns of substance use at early stages could have significant long-term implications.
