Drug treatment overviews

The European Monitoring Centre on Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) in June 2005, made available on its website drug treatment overviews of the availability of drug-related treatment (including social reintegration) that are now available for the 25 EU Member States, Bulgaria, Romania and Norway. The drug treatment overviews consist of four main parts: A description of the national context; availability of drug-free treatment including a breakdown of the services provided; a concise overview on the kinds of substance applied in medically assisted treatment, together with information on its availability. An estimate of the coverage rate of medically assisted treatment (as a percentage of the total number of problem drug users) is also presented. If not available via the Source Url, please go to the Homepage of the EMCDDA and select 'Responses to drug use', 'Drug treatment', 'Drug treatment overviews'.
