Abstract

The UK government’s drug strategy for 2017 targets the threats of new types of drug misuse,12 which include psychoactive substances, image and performance enhancing drugs, “chemsex” drugs, and misuse of prescribed drugs. But resources to implement the suggested partnerships with local services and sufficient funding for harm reduction, drug education, and mental health services are lacking.
