Why be part of a disease management programme?

Substance abuse is a highly complex disease.
People can have substance use disorder in conjunction with physical and/or mental health co-morbidities.
Research conducted by UNODC 2022 highlights the following:
- Integrated treatment is seen as the model of excellence. It tackles substance and mental disorders with a multi-disciplinary team approach.
- Consequential or consecutive models do not work, where treatment for mental and substance abuse disorders is kept separate.
- Higher emergency admissions, increased rates of hospitalisation, the prevalence of suicide, higher risk of drug use relapse, worse treatment outcomes and early mortality.
