This research investigates fentanyl use among police detainees participating in the Drug Use Monitoring in Australia program. Three percent of respondents tested positive to fentanyl and/or norfentanyl during urinalysis, and 11 percent reported lifetime fentanyl use. Nonprescribed fentanyl use was associated with use of and dependence on other drugs in the past 12 months. Three percent of all detainees believed they had used an illicit substance mixed with fentanyl. No detainees who tested positive to fentanyl reported using the drug in the past 12 months. These findings suggest fentanyl contamination may be occurring in the Australian illicit drug market.

ABSTRACT Illicit substance use has been becoming the major global issue. In Indonesia, inmates imprisoned for illicit substance offences accounted for 40 percent of the total inmates. This study aimed to identify the effects of family psychoeducational therapies on inmates’ self esteem in the narcotics correctional facility.  Quasi-experimental pre-post test with control group was employed in this study. Intervention group 1 received general nursing intervention whereas intervention group 2 received family psychoeducational therapies.  This study involved 31 inmates for each group. Data were collected using Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale (RSES), and were analysed using repeated ANOVA dan independent t-tests. The study demonstrated that self esteem was significantly upper amongst those who received the combination of those two therapies compared to those who received general nursing intervention standalone (p < .005). This study suggested the implementation of both general nursing intervention and specialistic therapies, particularly family psychoeducational therapies to address the anxiety problems experienced by adolescent inmates suffering from illicit substance dependences.
