Effective … • Methadone and buprenorphine—are effective in treating dependence on opioids. … Drug users who remain in treatment and receive sufficient doses of the medication, experience greater benefits, including protection against HIV infection. … high-risk countries should make such treatment widely available, where feasible. • Multi-component HIV prevention programs that include sterile needle and syringe access are effective in reducing drug related HIV risks such as needle and syringe sharing. • nations should take steps to better align law enforcement and public health approaches.
… and cost effective. • In the Ukraine needle and syringe programmes are estimated to cost less than $100 per HIV infection averted. • In Australia the return on investment of a decade of needle and syringe programmes was estimated at one and a half billion US dollars.
Bold Results for 2011In 10 of the 20 countries where the epidemic is driven by unsafe drug use or where unsafe drug use threatens a new wave of HIV infections: • Regulations and policies will be implemented to support evidence-based harm reduction and drug dependence treatment services in relation to injecting drug use and non-injecting stimulant use. • Needle and syringe programmes will be extended to regularly reach 40% of people who inject drugs, and opioid substitution therapy will be extended to regularly reach 10% of people who inject opioids. • Uptake of antiretroviral therapy for people who use drugs and are living with HIV will double.
