| Abstract |
Syringe-exchange programs (SEPs) in Connecticut operate with caps on the number of syringes exchanged per visit. We investigated the effects of legislation increasing the cap on drug injectors’ access to clean syringes through the SEPs in New Haven and Hartford. The mixed design of this study included longitudinal and cross-sectional data from individuals and ecological data from program operations. Five parameters-syringe return rate, syringes per visit to the SEP, syringe reuse rate, syringe human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevalence, and syringe sharing-were monitored through syringe tracking and testing of SEP syringes and by interviewing injectors. Two increases in the cap-from 5 to 10 and then from 10 to 30-had little effect on the five parameters that measured injectors’ access to clean syringes. In contrast, access to clean syringes increased when the New Haven SEP first began operations, when syringes first became available at pharmacies in Hartford, and when the agency running the Hartford SEP changed. Legislation providing piecemeal increases in the cap may not, by themselves, be sufficient to increase injectors’ access to clean syringes and decrease the risk of human immunodeficiency virus transmission in this population. |

| Abstract |
In May 2000, New York State passed legislation permitting the sale, purchase, and possession of up to 10 needles and syringes without a prescription. The law is intended to reduce the transmission of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis among injection drug users (IDUs), their sexual partners, and their children. To obtain baseline information about the attitudes and likely practices of New York State pharmacists, we distributed a self-administered questionnaire to attendees of the state pharmacy association meeting in June 2000. Of 48 usable responses, 19% were from New York City and the rest from New York State. Of the 48, 42% were unaware of the new law before the day of the survey, and 60% were somewhat or very willing to sell needles and syringes to an IDU. Of those who were not willing to sell to an IDU, 82% cited familiarity of the customer as a very important consideration in their decision making. Those who were not willing to sell to an IDU were more concerned about the detrimental impact of syringe sales on the community, were less likely to be aware of the new law, and were more likely to be concerned about legal liability for syringe sales. Over 80% of all pharmacists believed that syringe sales to IDUs are an important preventive health measure. The majority also favored learning more about the law. Compared to other state surveys of pharmacists, these preliminary data show a similar level of interest in becoming involved with syringe availability programs. |

| Abstract |
A systematic review was conducted to identify the available data for the term Krokodil, which is a jargon expression for an allegedly new drug. Krokodil seems to be a mixture of several substances and was first used in Russia in 2003, with a tremendous increase in the number of addicted individuals since then. The psychoactive core agent of Krokodil is desomorphine, an opioid-analogon that can be manufactured by boiling tablets containing codeine and other ingredients. The procedure results in a suspension that is used intravenously and regularly causes complications such as abscess, thrombophlebitis, and gangrene. |

| Abstract |
Le respect des droits de l’homme est une caractéristique qui définit la réduction des risques, communément caractérisée comme un mouvement basé sur la santé publique. L’importance qu’il attache à une « user-friendliness » et la conception que les consommateurs de drogue ont droit au même respect et à la même dignité que les autres usagers de services sanitaires ou sociaux est largement partagée par les professionnels de la réduction des risques. Dans ce courant il y a également un discours qui identifie la consommation de drogue comme un droit humain qui voudrait que la réduction des risques fasse partie du mouvement des droits de 1’homme: ceci nous conduit à décrire deux philosophies de la réduction des risques: une version « light » où les gens ont droit à un traitement convenable et une version plus appuyée « hard »qui reconnaît en plus le droit à l’usage de drogues. En faisant des droits de l’homme ou de la santé publique une priorité peut amener différents concepts de réduction des risques et différentes formes « d’actions correctes ». Privilégier la santé peut même, dans certains cas, être en phase avec une politique prohibitionniste si elle réduit les dommages. En contraste, la version élargie de la réduction des risques subordonne des considérations de santé publique au droit de consommer des drogues et implique le soutien à des politiques qui peuvent parfois augmenter les dommages. En Grande-Bretagne, la publication de « The Angel Declaration» qui reconnaît le droit d’utiliser des drogues et propose un cadre de régulation minime pour une ère post-prohibition a poussé les professionnels de la réduction des risques à clarifier s’ils approuvaient pleinement le droit de consommer des drogues dans le cadre de leur conception de la réduction des risques. Cet article élabore ces thèmes dans le contexte des contraintes issues des conventions des Nations Unies de 1961,1971 et 1988. |
