Introduction: Drug abuse is a serious threat to community health increasing in lower age groups. Studies have shown that the majority of adolescents have started the drug abuse in the age of ۱۲ to ۱۳ years. We aimed to explain the perception of risky and protective factors of drug abuse among teenagers. Method: This was a qualitative study conducted through content analysis based on ecological model.
