Résumé :
FRANÇAIS :
Recherche auprès de 97 jeunes morphinomanes, non-psychotiques et masculins qui attestent une toxicomanie par injection d'origine non-thérapeutique. Tous renvoyés d'un hôpital psychiatrique au Danemark, ils ont été contactés 3 ans après leur admission. Au moment de l'évaluation, 19 % avaient atteint l'abstinence, 9 % étaient morts, le reste était toujours intoxiqué.
ENGLISH:
Ninety-seven young non-psychotic men with intravenous opiate abuse, who had been admitted to a psychiatric hospital, were seen at follow-up 3 years after admission. All were traced. At follow-up, 19% were abstinent, 9% had died, whereas the remainder were still addicted. Those who had become abstinent had done so around the age of 20 and/or before they had been addicted to opiate for 3-4 years, almost regardless of the time at which their total drug abuse had started.
