EMCDDA. How to estimate the cost of drug treatment in Europe?

It is estimated that over 1 million people receive treatment for drug-related problems in the European Union every year. With shrinking public budgets, increasing pressure on health systems, changes in the substances used and the need to provide ongoing care to chronic cases, how can we estimate the cost of drug treatment in Europe? This is the question explored in a new report released today by the EU drugs agency (EMCDDA) entitled Drug treatment expenditure: a methodological overview (1). (EMCDDA, Lissbon  18.10.2017  (News release No 11/2017))
