Abstract

Early substance use results in some physical and mental health problems and is a predictor of frequent use later in life. Youths have been recognized as a highly vulnerable population to substance use. However, research assessing the substance use and misuse in this population is constrained in Vietnam. This study aimed to explore the sociodemographic characteristics of substance use among young people in Vietnam.
