Current AIDS epidemiology
• Approximately 33,000,000 living with HIV/AIDS
• Over 10,000,000 infections among IDU
• Outside of Africa, over 33% of all new infections are estimated to be attributable to injection drug use
• No estimates of the major role of alcohol and non-injection drug use such as crack cocaine

HIV prevention strategies for drug using populations
• Education about HIV transmission
• HIV counseling and testing
• Increased access to sterile injection resources and condoms
• Drug addiction treatment
• HIV treatment
![Page 8: Addiction Treatment as HIV Prevention Charles P. O’Brien, MD, PhD David Metzger, PhD George E. Woody, MD University of Pennsylvania Treatment Research](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56649ea35503460f94ba788e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Treatment Options for Opioid Addiction
• Outpatient drug free counseling- not effective
• Medication-free therapeutic community-• Expensive, not widely available, effective with
small proportion of patients
• Methadone-1964, national program 1971
• Partial agonist- BuprenorphineSuboxone (combination)
• Naltrexone oral, depot and implant
![Page 9: Addiction Treatment as HIV Prevention Charles P. O’Brien, MD, PhD David Metzger, PhD George E. Woody, MD University of Pennsylvania Treatment Research](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56649ea35503460f94ba788e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Methadone
• Full agonist• Cross tolerance with all opioids• Reduces craving• Prevents withdrawal• Prevents pleasure from other opioids• Low dose not effective

Conclusions
• Data suggests effective treatments for drug users:
- recognize addiction as a chronic disease
- use pharmacologic and counseling interventions
- are accessible, acceptable, and affordable

Conclusions
• Behavioral and serologic data support the hypotheses that drug users in treatment:
- significantly reduce the frequency of use
- practice fewer risk behaviors
- have greater access to HIV treatment
- are more adherent to HIV care
