Trends in the care of drug addicts: survey among general practitioners in 2001 and comparison 92-95-98-2001

A new survey among a national sample of general practitioners was carried out at the end of 2000-beginning of 2001 at the initiative, as in previous years, of the Observatoire français des drogues et des toxicomanies (OFDT). 

The objective of this new edition was to monitor the recent trends in the care of drug addicts by general practitioners and to establish a new perspective on the previous results, in light of the changes that have occurred over the different periods. 

The survey also had to allow an assessment on substitution to be drawn up a few years after being set up and enable an examination of the use of illicit products other than heroin among those who go to see a general practitioner (cannabis, amphetamines, etc.) and the consumption of alcohol.

The results presented below involve the 1995, 1998 and 2001 surveys, which focus on the entire French territory (since the 1992 survey focused solely on 4 regions, only a comparison across this sub-sample would have been possible).
