This article provides a careful analysis of all the major actions, taken in the field of combating drug abuse in the Republic of Azerbaijan since its indepence.

The establishment of the State Commission on Combatting Drug Abuse and Illicit Drug Trafficking in 1996 and the adoption of national law on the “Control of Illicit Trafficking in Narcotic Drugs, Psychotropic Substances and Precursors” in 1999 are among the most visible steps, taken during the presidency of the National Leader Heydar Aliyev to combat drug abuse through sustainably constructed policies. A throughout information on the different objectives of the SCAD Programme is provided in the article. After conducting a careful review on the systematic actions, like adoption of new national law, regulating all aspects of drug-trafficking, and state programs on combating drug-abuse, taken since the beginning of the presidency of Ilham Aliyev, the valuable statistical information is provided about the growing number of drug-addicted people, willing to receive treatment.
