title: Drug education: the prevention issues.
abstract: This article considers the major issues facing drug education by identifying and discussing eight dichotomies. These dichotomies capture the decisions faced by policy-makers, drug education planners, and practitioners. The dichotomies permit a cohesive, simplified, examination of the complex dilemmas currently faced by the field; they include: identification of the problems to be addressed, etiological under-pinnings, program objectives, target audiences, and effective strategies.
