According to the 2017 report of the European Monitoring Center for Drugs and Drug Addiction, in Spain, the prevalence of illegal substance use has remained relatively stable in recent years: approximately one third of adults admit to having consumed at some point in their lives some illegal substance. Cannabis, followed by cocaine, is the most common drug, whose consumption is mainly concentrated among adolescents and adults under 35 years of age. Although the latest available data from the 2015 survey in the general population confirm that the prevalence of consumption of both substances has been reduced in the last ten years, the levels associated with cannabis and cocaine in Spain are still higher than in other countries of Europe.The available data show that "experimentation" with cannabis is more "usual" among the current generation of young spanish people; However, although persistent consumption is still low, people who consume, do it daily. The consumption of illegal substances continues to be more widespread among men than among women.
