Abstract: The National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH)) is a survey of the civilian, noninstitutionalized population of the United States, age 12 and over. The data are used to estimate the prevalence of cigarette, alcohol and illicit drug use, and abuse of licit drugs. Results are used by SAMHSA, ONDCP, and other Federal agencies and other researchers and organizations to establish policy, direct program activities, and better allocate resources.

Short Statement: Currently, there are 82,331 total burden hours in the OMB inventory. SAMHSA is requesting 92,653 burden hours for each survey year starting with 2025. This increase of 10,322 burden hours is due to a decline in main study response rates, which results in the need to contact additional dwelling units to yield the targeted number of completed interviews.
