The European Commission has stressed the importance of being better prepared for future drug trends, to inform proactive drug policy and strengthen national monitoring and intervention capacity. Urine drug testing represents a potentially useful means of surveillance, allowing for the detection of drug use trends over time. In this study, we examined trends in detection rates for prescription drugs with potential for misuse (opioids, benzodiazepines), and cocaine among people attending the National Drug Treatment Centre between 2010 and 2020. Preliminary age adjusted models indicated significant time changes in the detection of benzodiazepines, opioids and cocaine. A yearly decrease was observed for alcohol. Further analysis will consider detection rates for concurrent drug use over time..
