Abuse of cannabis and he**in, both of which are extremely cheap and easy to get, is rife in the country. Most of the drugs come from Afghanistan, the country that is responsible for at least 75% of the world's he**in.[5] The UNODC calculates that more than 800,000 Pakistanis between the ages of 15 and 64 use he**in regularly. It is also estimated that up to 44 tons of processed he**in are consumed annually in Pakistan. A further 110 tons of he**in and morphine from neighboring Afghanistan are trafficked through Pakistan to international markets. Furthermore, Pakistan's illegal drug trade is believed to generate up to $2 billion a year
