An age–period–cohort–interaction analysis of meth/amphetamine‐related deaths in Australia, 2001–2020
Despite different age profiles across the various causes of death, cohort effects suggest a single generation (Generation X: people born between 1962 and 1982) is predominantly experiencing the increase in meth/amphetamine-related mortality observed in Australia over the past 20 years. As Generation X ages, the risk of meth/amphetamine-related natural deaths, especially from cardiovascular disease, is likely to increase.
