摘要: From the start of AIDS epidemic, a variety strategies have been implemented in an attempt respond to reduce transmissions among drug users, but these efforts narrowly defined, are limited scope and focused almost exclusively on injection use related risks. The role non-injection substance sustaining sexual transmission inhibiting effective antiretroviral treatment has underestimated since first cases HIV infection were identified. Substance remains one greatest global challenges risk reduction, access retention care, adherence medications, sustained suppression viral load. This chapter reviews accomplishments discusses opportunities facing scale-up prevention technologies regards addressing impact use. Three major topics will be addressed: (1) defining challenge, (2) medication-assisted treatments for disorders as technologies, (3) scale-up.
