Nationwide, hospital admissions for methamphetamine/amphetamine have increased dramatically since 1995. In Oregon, treatment episodes are over 220 per 100,000. Other states have also seen explosive growth. Alabama was the first state in the Southeast to register more than 47 admissions per 100,000 (2004).
