The National Drug Threat Assessment, NDIC's major intelligence product, is a comprehensive annual report on national drug trafficking and abuse trends within the United States. The assessment identifies the primary drug threat to the nation, monitors fluctuations in consumption levels, tracks drug availability by geographic market, and analyzes trafficking and distribution patterns. The report highlights the most current quantitative and qualitative information on availability, demand, production and cultivation, transportation, and distribution, as well as the effects of a particular drug on abusers and society as a whole.

Bulletins and Briefs are developed in response to new trends or high-priority drug issues. They are quickly relayed to the law enforcement and intelligence communities and are intended to warn law enforcement officials of emerging trends.
