I was mostly curious with regards to the US. Drug culture is highly variable across countries and continents. Extremely strict gun and drug laws have been successful at reducing crime and addiction in small Asian countries like Korea and Japan, but that approach hasn't shown much promise in the US.

I'm aware of Portugal's example, too, but your comment made me curious if there had been further studies within the US with regards to recent laws decriminalizing / legalizing cannabis in various states.
