摘要
Stigma has become a primary social force facing patients in methadone and buprenorphine treatment. For quality methadone and buprenorphine treatment to flourish it will be necessary to confront and reduce this negative influence. This article, co-authored by a patient and professional, discusses stigma and prejudice from the viewpoint of patients. Educational and national strategies using the media and targeted to patients, programs, and the general public are discussed.
