Abstract     Data on self-reported adolescent alcohol, tobacco and illicit drug use collected by the Pompidou group school-survey questionnaire and methodology and based on the city sample of 1029 Ljubljana high school students ages 15-18 yers old are presented. Regular tobacco and alcohol use in the 30 days prior to the survey were reported by 22.0 percent and 7.5 percent, respectively. Nearly one third of the students (30.2 percent) reported use of cannabis (marijuana or hash) at some point in their life and 1.3 and 1.7 percent reported lifetime use of heroin and cocain, respectively. Also, cannabis, is the most commonly used illicit and recreational drug during the 12 months prior to the survey. Boys are more likely to be alcohol, tobacco and illicit drug users than girls. But medical substances are more likely to be used by girls. Use of licit and illicit drugs were more commonly used among older students than among younger students. There is an urgent need for the school survey on the national level.
Summary     Prikazani so podatki o uporabi alkohola, tobaka in nedovoljenih drog po metodi skupine Pompidu na vzorcu 1029 srednješolcev v starosti 15-18 leti v Ljubljani in na podlagi samoporočanja. Redno uporabo tobaka in alkohola v obdobju 30 dni pred anketiranjem je navedlo 22.0 odst. oz. 7.5 odst. srednješolcev. Skoraj ena tretjina (30.2 odst.) je poročala o uporabi kanabisa (marihuani ali hašišu) vsaj enkrat v življenju. 1.3 odst. oz. 1.7 odst. anketirancev je vsaj enkrat v življenju poskusilo heroin oz. kokain. Kanabis je bila tudi najpopularnejša rekreacijska nedovoljena droga v zadnjem letu pred anketiranjem. Fantje so pogosteje posegali po alkoholu, tobaku in nedovoljenih drogah v primerjavi z dekleti. Slednje pa so prednjačile pri uporabi psihoaktivnih zdravil brez zdravniškega nadzora. Uporaba dovoljenih in nedovoljenih drog je bila bolj pogosta med starejšimi adolescenti kot med mlajšimi. Nujno potrebujemo presečno raziskavo o razširjenosti uživanja drog med srednješolci na nacionalnem vzorcu.
