This study constitutes the qualitative part of an evaluation work set up at the end of 1996 by a group of general practitioners who had already monitored the progress of drug users before the substitution regulations (1995-1996). 

The first phase of this evaluation system was quantitative in nature. It was carried out between 1996 and 1998. 

Its second phase, presented here, was carried out in 1999. Its objective was the qualitative evaluation of doctor/patient relationships built up around the issuing of substitution drugs (high dose buprenorphine, methadone, morphine sulphates).
