Journal of Addictions & Offender Counseling, v26 n2 p84 Apr 2006
Young adults' 3,4-methylenedyoxymethamphetamine (MDMA) use is a national public health concern. Although research on the epidemiology of MDMA use has increased, inquiry into intervention and treatment is needed. The authors examine results from an epidemiological investigation from a clinical perspective and provide suggestions for clinicians working with MDMA users. (Contains 5 tables.)
