›› Missouri: Drug Climate

Mexican drug trafficking organizations control a large majority of the distribution of the meth, cocaine, marijuana, and heroin in Missouri. Numerous small toxic methamphetamine laboratories are found in all areas of Missouri.

• Cocaine:
  A steady supply of cocaine is continuously coming into the metropolitan areas of Missouri. The number of cocaine-related overdose deaths continues to decrease in the St. Louis area.
• Heroin:
  Mexican black tar, and to a lesser extent Mexican brown heroin, are available throughout the state.
• Meth:
  Both Mexican and locally produced meth continue to be available throughout the state.
• Club Drugs:
  Ecstasy is available throughout the state and is brought in from Los Angeles, New York City, and Miami. GHB and Rohypnol have become increasingly available in Missouri.
• Marijuana:
  Marijuana is readily available throughout the state with Mexican marijuana being imported from the Southwest Border. Treatment admissions for marijuana use have grown approximately 400 percent between 1994 and 2001, only exceeded by admissions for methamphetamine/amphetamine abuse.
