We look at 42 opiate addicts being in substitution therapy at a certain date (24.9.2003) in an outpatient treatment setting of a psychiatric hospital. Treatment outcome is described with amount of take home, reduced delinquency, increased social reintegration as well as pharmacological treatment. 25 men and 17 women, age from 20 to 49 (29) have been in our treatment between 1 to 52 months (29). 20 of them (48%) got an additional psychiatric medication, mostly antidepressants (42%) but also neuroleptics (9,5%). 21 patients had a drug free urine test (including cannabis) during the last month and could take their opiate medication at home. Necessity of support by social security declines from 25% before to 16% in substitution treatment. Also the need of unemployment benefit could be reduced from 36% before to 26% in treatment. Full time jobs increase from 31% to 48%, part time jobs from 3% to 7% in treatment.
