STATE UNIVERSITY OF MEDICINE AND PHARMACY “NICOLAE TESTEMITANU”
BRIEf dESCRIpTIon of ThE oRganIzaTIon
The organization was established in 1985. Scientific personnel : 2 university professors, 4 doctors in
medicine.
Estimations for the last 5 years show an increase in drugs use, especially that of adolescent use. Using
anonym surveys through adolescents, it was evaluated that the potential consumption rate of PAS in
Chisinau is 16,0±1,1% and 14,5±1,1% in Balti. Through discriminatory evaluations - risk factors,
protection factors and their hierarchies have been established. Therefore, we find it necessary to orientate
prophylaxes activities to achieve the following directions : provide objective information about drugs;
inform children about the negative consequences of drug use, and indirectly orientate their decisions in
order to eliminate potential drug addictions.
