The number of drug-related deaths in Scotland soared to 1,187 last year, according to official statistics.
The figure is 27% higher than the previous year, and the highest since records began in 1996.
It means there were more drug-related deaths in Scotland last year than the 1,136 alcohol-specific deaths.
And the country's drug death rate is now nearly three times that of the UK as a whole, and is higher than that reported for any other EU country.
