Heroin Snorting on the Rise:
According to a survey conducted by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), a significant increase in the number of Americans experimenting with heroin snorting accompanied the rise in the purity of street heroin in the United States during the early 1990s. The survey, which was conducted between 1988 and 1993, revealed that the annual number of hospital emergency department visits related to snorting or sniffing heroin jumped by 470 percent, from eleven hundred to six thousand. However, the hospital emergencies related to snorting composed just 20 percent of the total increase in heroin-related emergencies over this period.
