OWID: Alcohol and drug use disorders as a share of total disease burden

Disease burden is measured in Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) – both from years of life lost due to premature death and years lived with a disability. One DALY equals one year of healthy life. Source: IHME, Global Burden of Disease (2025), compiled by Our World in Data. Metadata only: OWID may not redistribute the values.
