Title Needle sharing among intravenous drug abusers : national and international perspectives Type Book Whole
Year 1989 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages xiv, 189
Keywords needle sharing; prevention program; HIV infection; Aids; intravenous drug user; United States
Abstract (down) Papers review findings emanating from the May 18-19 conference on ’Needle Sharing Among Intravenous Drug Abusers: National and International Perspectives’ held in Bethesda, Maryland. Topics include epidemiological data regarding AIDS and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection among intravenous drug abusers in the United States and Europe and drug abuse and injection practices among intravenous drug abusers in New York City, San Francisco, and the Southwest region of the United States. Papers address the implications of drug policy in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, for controlling needle sharing, the influence of AIDS upon drug use practices in the United Kingdom, and that country’s efforts to make sterile injection equipment readily available. Additional papers focus on the implications for AIDS prevention among intravenous drug abusers in France; review of Federal and State laws regulating the availability and use of hypodermic needles and syringes within the U.S.; and consider implications of legislation and enforcement practices for the prevention of AIDS transmission. It was recommended that communities across the United States implement programs to educate addicts about their risk for AIDS and ways to reduce it and that resources be expanded so drug abuse treatment is readily available.

Title Cannabis, synthetic cannabinoids, and psychosis risk : What the evidence says Type Journal Article
Year 2011 Publication Current Psychiatry Abbreviated Journal
Volume 10 Issue 9 Pages 49-57
Keywords risk factors; schizophrenia; etiology; cannabis; study
Abstract (down) Over the past 50 years, anecdotal reports linking cannabis sativa (marijuana) and psychosis have been steadily accumulating, giving rise to the notion of “cannabis psychosis.” Despite this historic connection, marijuana often is regarded as a “soft drug” with few harmful effects. However, this benign view is now being revised, along with mounting research demonstrating a clear association between cannabis and psychosis. In this article, I review evidence on marijuana’s impact on the risk of developing psychotic disorders, as well as the potential contributions of “medical” marijuana and other legally available products containing synthetic cannabinoids to psychosis risk.

Title Threats to cognitive liberty : pharmacotherapy and the future of the drug war Type Report
Year 2004 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 50
Keywords treatment and maintenance; drug therapy; AOD use, abuse, and dependence; illicit drug; ethics; human rights
Abstract (down) Over the next decade an increasing number of new “pharmacotherapy” medications will become available with the potential to tremendously impact the use and abuse of illegal drugs and the overall direction of national and international drug policy. These pharmacotherapy medications are designed to block or significantly reduce the “highs” elicited by illegal drugs. Used as part of a drug treatment program, pharmacotherapy medications may provide valuable assistance for people seeking a chemical aid in limiting or eliminating problem drug use. However, the tremendously politicized nature of the “drug war” raises substantial concerns that, in addition to those who choose to use such medications, some people will be compelled to use them. In the absence of extraordinary circumstances, governmental action forcing or coercing a person to use a pharmacotherapy drug would violate a number of constitutional guarantees and other legal rights protecting people from forced medical treatment. Among the rights implicated by compulsory use of pharmacotherapy drugs are the right to informed consent, the right to bodily integrity and privacy, the protection against cruel and unusual punishment, and the right to freedom of thought.

Title Ethische Überlegungen zur substitutionsgestützen Behandlung Type Journal Article
Year 2013 Publication SuchtMagazin Abbreviated Journal
Volume 39 Issue 1; 02/2013 Pages 14-18
Keywords treatment and maintenance; ethics; public welfare; self-determination
Abstract (down) Opioidabhängige sind aus ethischer Sicht PatientInnen und Personen. Als PatientInnen haben sie einen Anspruch auf angemessene medizinische Behandlung und soziale Unterstützung. Als Personen haben sie einerseits das Recht auf Respektierung ihrer PatientInnenautonomie. Andererseits haben sie die Pflicht, die Rechte Dritter zu achten und sich an geltende Regeln zu halten. Tun sie dies nicht, können Sanktionen gerechtfertigt sein. Der Umgang mit Opioidabhängigen sollte sich an diesen ethischen Kriterien orientieren – und nicht an politischen Opportunitäten oder ideologisch geprägten Vorstellungen.

Diese Entwicklung ist problematisch, weil solche Spiele aufgrund ihrer Eigenschaften ein erhöhtes Gefährdungspotenzial für eine Suchtentwicklung aufweisen. Seitens der Prävention werden deshalb vermehrt Konzepte und Massnahmen gefordert, die ein problematisches Spielen gar nicht erst aufkommen lassen.
