摘要：AbstractFor more than two years, the ethnobotanicals were considered legal substances in Romania, easily found in “weedshops” - special shops in the university campus, in school areas, or even online. An important number of victims, teenagers, college or university students, arrived in emergency units with clear signs of drug intoxication. The use of ethnobotanicals was declared intentional and for entertainment, in clubs, parties or school events. The survey identifies a rate of ethnobotanical use of 16,36% in the university campus; it also studies the reasons of consumption and the students beliefs and awareness of ethnobotanicals effects among freshman engineering students.
