Yes, older adults do use methamphetamine, although it is less common than among younger populations. Factors such as social isolation, mental health issues, and chronic pain can contribute to substance use in this age group. Additionally, the prevalence of methamphetamine use among older adults has been increasing in some regions, raising concerns about addiction and health consequences. Programs addressing substance use in older adults are important for prevention and treatment.
