AB Withdrawal of opiates drug addicts in Internal Medicine is unusual in
France. Four main preliminary conditions are requested: 1--Drug addict
preparation and self motivation, 2--Inter and intra institution team
collaboration, 3--Opening the hospital towards community agencies,
4--Hospital staff recruited on volunteer basis. Within two years
(1992-1993), 210 opiates drug addicts were hospitalized for withdrawal.
Two third were males, median age was 27, median years of addiction was
7. Thirty percent were seropositive for HIV, 70% for HCV.
Hospitalisation lasted 7 days for heroin addicts and 10 days for
morphin, codein or buprenorphin addicts. Successful withdrawn was
observed for 70% patients but six months after withdrawal, only 15%
remained abstinent.
