Powder form of cocaine is easily obtainable all over New Hampshire. However, crack is primarily available in the urban areas such as Rochester, Manchester, and Portsmouth. There has been an increase in the availability of heroin along the coastline and in the southeast region of the state. Heroin has emerged as the most significant drug threat to New Hampshire. High purity, low cost heroin is attracting a new user population of young adults who snort or smoke the drug instead of injecting it.



Marijuana is the most readily available and widely abused illegal drug in New Hampshire. Most of the marijuana available in the state originates in Mexico. However, BC Bud from Canada and domestically produced marijuana are also available. THC content in excess of 22% has been commonly found in the area.

There has been a rise in the availability of methamphetamine in the state, particularly in and around the coastal area. There has also been a quick increase in the availability of MDMA in New Hampshire, especially among students and in connection with the raves. The diversion and abuse of pharmaceutical drugs, especially OxyContin and methylphenidate hydrochloride (Ritalin), pose significant and increasing threats to New Hampshire. Vicodin and Percocet are also diverted and abused in the state.
