Abstract
In Bangladesh, drug addiction is more prevalent among men than women. However, women like Rina and Leena experience its adverse impacts more severely than men. When a member of the family is addicted to drugs, it depletes household resources, driving the family into economic distress. Being multiply vulnerable, women bear the brunt of domestic discord, economic instability, compounding household burdens and the strain of familial crises and emotional pressure resulting from substance abuse.
