DRUG ADDICTION
Part One is entitled 'Understanding the Basics', and discusses the psychological and physical reasons why people start and continue to use drugs. Specialist terms are defined.

Part Two is called 'Treating the Drug Addict' and offers practical and pragmatic guidelines for treatment. It covers physical and psychological treatments, the legal aspects of prescribing and the role of drug screening. Public health issues are highlighted at the end of this section.

The programme has been carefully researched and designed to provide newcomers with some of the knowledge that, up until now, comes only from clinical experience. The programme concentrates on practical aspects such as drug tolerance and the use of methadone. Prominence is given to the type of clinical problems that are encountered in a drug addiction service.
