Gr 7 Up—A group of real teens who have abused prescription drugs such as pain relievers (Oxycontin, Vicodin), depressants (Xanax, Valium), and stimulants discuss how they became addicted to these drugs, how it has impacted their lives, and their road to recovery. Viewers learn about these most commonly abused classes of prescription drugs and doctors, law enforcement personnel, and social service experts present additional information and statistics on drug abuse. Follow-up activities, pre- and post-tests, and more reinforce the information presented. A valuable resource for communities where prescription drug abuse is a growing problem.—Ann Weber, Bellarmine College Prep., San Jose, CA
