Title Effects of increasing syringe availability on syringe-exchange use and HIV risk : Connecticut, 1990-2001 Type Journal Article
Year 2002 Publication Journal of urban health : bulletin of the New York Academy of Medicine Abbreviated Journal
Volume 79 Issue 4; 12/2002 Pages 556-570
Keywords HIV infection; needle sharing; needle distribution and exchange; intravenous injection; Connecticut; New Haven; Hartford
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.

Title New York State pharmacist's attitudes toward needle and syringe sales to injection drug users before implementation of syringe deregulation Type Journal Article
Year 2000 Publication Journal of urban health : bulletin of the New York Academy of Medicine Abbreviated Journal
Volume 77 Issue 4; 12/2000 Pages 768-780
Keywords harm reduction; needle distribution and exchange; pharmacist; minor offense; prevention; law; United States; New York
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.

Title Citizens who inject drugs : the “Fitpack” study Type Journal Article
Year 2000 Publication International journal of drug policy Abbreviated Journal
Volume 11 Issue 4 Pages 285-297
Keywords AOD use, abuse, and dependence; chemical addiction; intravenous drug user; hidden population; harm reduction; Australia
Abstract Most injecting drug users have never been in drug treatment yet much research is done on samples with high treatment rates drawn from agency and peer recruited populations. This study accessed drug injectors with little or no prior drug treatment, described their characteristics, BBVI risk behaviours and feedback on services. Its results challenge some stereotypes about citizens who inject drugs. A sample of 511 ’hidden’ drug injectors, of whom only 28.7% had any specialist drug treatment agency contact, completed a questionnaire which was distributed with ’Fitpack’ needle packs sold through community pharmacies in WA. The mean age of respondents was 26.2 years, 43.4% were women, 44.3% were living with their sexual partner, 41.7% were parents, and 46.4% were employed, mostly in full time work. In the previous month 61.2% had injected less frequently than daily. The study accessed a diverse group of drug injectors not typically seen in agency and peer recruited research. They provided useful feedback about how harm reduction strategies among injectors can be improved. However, they also reported higher rates of injecting and sharing than found previously in traditionally recruited samples of injectors, which suggests there is no room for complacency regarding the potential for blood-borne viral infection (BBVI) transmission in this group.
