Injecting drug use is a major problem worldwide.
This study quantifies the costs of injecting drug
use, including health costs, crime, deaths from drug
overdoses and social costs. Eighty-five drug
users are followed up for an average time of 57
months on Methadone Maintenance Therapy in New
Zealand. Benefits of treatment include
reductions of drug use, crime,
prostitution, and improvements in health. A major
consequence of injecting drug use is hepatitis C
virus which infected 89% of the participants. This
study finds that it is cost-effective to provide
anti-viral therapy to drug users. Cost-
benefit analysis shows a savings in crime costs
of $8 for every $1 invested in methadone treatment.
The monetary costs of drug use and benefits of
treatment were similar for non-Mäori and for the
indigenous Mäori people of New Zealand. However,
Markov modelling showed that drug treatment is
associated with a greater saving of life for Mäori
people. This book will be useful for academics,
health professionals, drug & health policy analysts,
and for those interested in the war on drugs, law
enforcement and harm reduction policies.
