Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The World Drug Report presents comprehensive information on the illicit drug situation. It provides detailed estimates and trends on production, trafficking and consumption in the opium/heroin, coca/cocaine, cannabis and amphetamine-type stimulants markets. The drug problem is being contained but there are warning signs that the stabilization which has occurred over the last few years could be in danger. Notable amongst these is the increase in both opium poppy and coca cultivation in 2007, some growth in consumption in developing countries and some development of new trafficking patterns. There have also been encouraging contractions in some of the main consumer markets. This year, almost one hundred years since the Shanghai Opium Commission in 1909, the Report presents an historical review of the development of the international drug control system.

Download or read book Pain Management and the Opioid Epidemic written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drug overdose, driven largely by overdose related to the use of opioids, is now the leading cause of unintentional injury death in the United States. The ongoing opioid crisis lies at the intersection of two public health challenges: reducing the burden of suffering from pain and containing the rising toll of the harms that can arise from the use of opioid medications. Chronic pain and opioid use disorder both represent complex human conditions affecting millions of Americans and causing untold disability and loss of function. In the context of the growing opioid problem, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) launched an Opioids Action Plan in early 2016. As part of this plan, the FDA asked the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to convene a committee to update the state of the science on pain research, care, and education and to identify actions the FDA and others can take to respond to the opioid epidemic, with a particular focus on informing FDA's development of a formal method for incorporating individual and societal considerations into its risk-benefit framework for opioid approval and monitoring.

Download or read book Response to the 2008 Annual Report of the International Narcotics Control Board written by International Drug Policy Consortium and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As in previous years, the 2008 Annual Report of the International Narcotics Control Board (INCB) contains a wealth of technical information on the operation of the international drug control system that attempts to manage the global licit market for narcotic and psychotropic substances for medical and research uses while simultaneously stifling the illicit market. Interspersed with these operational descriptions are references and discussions on certain policy issues - primarily observations on the strengths and weaknesses of the system and what the INCB considers the main risks and threats to the effectiveness of that system. While much of this data and debate is a welcome contribution to the policy process, the IDPC continues to be troubled with the selective and subjective nature of the INCB's concerns; concerns that do not seem to flow from a balanced assessment of what constitutes non-compliance with the UN drug control conventions. In this response to the Annual Report attention is given to the INCB's analysis of a number of inter-connected issues, including the history of the drug control system and on its positions on three contemporary debates - harm reduction, the search for effective cannabis control, and the Bolivian request for reconsideration of the status of the coca leaf. The response concludes that the INCB continues to be quick to condemn what it sees as any move towards liberalization of policy and practice, while ignoring clear breaches of the spirit and letter of the conventions that arise from repressive policy in many countries. Recognizing that the INCB has a crucial role to play within a global control system that is fit for purpose in the 21st century, it is argued that the Board will need to make significant changes to both its perspectives and operating procedures if it is to gain the confidence of many civil society and government stakeholders in the future.
