ENGLISH :
The aim of this study was to determine if a conventional educational training evening influenced pharmacists' attitudes towards methadone substitution programmes and substance misusers. The sample consisted of 42 community pharmacists who attended two locally organized training evenings dealing with aspects of methadone prescribing. The Abstinence Orientation Scale (AOS) measuring attitudes to abstinence-orientated methadone substitution programmes was administered. Attitudes towards substance users and knowledge of methadone were also assessed. Pharmacists completed scales immediately before and after the educational intervention and a month later. Pharmacist assistants completed questionnaires at baseline and at 1-month follow-up. The null hypothesis tested was that there was no significant attitudinal change following the educational intervention. The mean pharmacist AOS score indicated a relatively strong commitment to abstinence programmes which decreased with time (p
