美沙酮维持疗法作为一种麻醉剂成瘾的治疗方法，有一个相对短暂但充满风暴的历史。从多尔和Nyswander的开创性工作中出现，它迅速从实验性治疗方案发展成为今天最常用的治疗技术。虽然美沙酮维持治疗被广泛接受的治疗方式，最近的一些工作突出了某些问题发生在这样的治疗方案，在文献中的中心关注的是美沙酮的转移从程序和随之而来的这种转移美沙酮在街上。有几项研究试图记录这种转移的存在，并对其程度作出一些估计（参见第103段）。Walter等人，1972; Weppner等人，1972; Stephens和Weppner，1973; Weppner和Stephens，1973）。这项研究将建立在以前的工作，并试图实现几个目标。首先，它将试图提供一些指示美沙酮在纽约市街头的现状。其次，它将试图描述如何非法美沙酮是获得。第三，本报告将试图帮助进一步了解转用过程。第四，它将试图通过利用受访者作为当前毒品形势的知识观察者来实现这些目标。
METHADONE maintenance as a treatment for narcotic addiction has, had a relatively brief but stormy history. Emerging from the pioneering work of Dole and Nyswander, it rapidly moved from an experimental treatment program to today's most frequently employed treatment technique. Although methadone maintenance is widely accepted as a treatment modality, some recent work highlights certain problems occurring in such treatment programs; of central concern in the literature is the diversion of methadone from the programs and the consequent availability of this diverted methadone on the streets. Several studies have attempted to document the existence of this diversion and give some estimate of its extent (cf. Walter et al., 1972; Weppner et al., 1972; Stephens and Weppner, 1973; Weppner and Stephens, 1973). This study will build on the previous work and attempt to accomplish several goals. First, it will attempt to provide some indication of the current status of methadone on the streets of New York City. Second, it will attempt to describe how illicit methadone is obtained. Third, it will attempt to contribute to a further understanding of the diversion process. And fourth, it will attempt to accomplish these goals by using respondents as knowledgeable observers of the current drug scene.
