Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Opioid maintenance treatment (OMT) saves lives and makes it possible to start a process of health and social rehabilitation. Previous research shows that those who leave OMT after years of a drug free life and a reasonable level of health and social rehabilitation can have a good chance of living a stable drug free life after leaving the treatment. The aim of this study was to gain more knowledge about how patients who were in the process of leaving, or who had left OMT, experienced the leaving process.
METHODS: The study was based on a thematic analysis of transcripts from individual in-depth interviews with 24 patients who had experience with leaving the Norwegian OMT program.
RESULTS: The participants in this study had a strong motivation to endure a demanding substitution medication tapering process and leave the OMT program. The tapering benefited strongly from adaptive routines based on ongoing dialog between patients and service providers throughout the process, based on individualized goals and patient experiences each step on the way. The participants had varied experiences regarding the quality and relevance of the support and meeting the need for further treatment and services.
CONCLUSIONS: Given a high level of rehabilitation and good support, this study shows that some OMT program patients are in a good position to successfully leave the OMT program or continue the substitution treatment on a low dosage in a less OMT program-dominated life.
