About This Book

The text analyzes the formation, clinical features, and management of dependence on opiates, chloral, and hashish, combining statistical evidence, case observations, and literature review. It describes preparations and methods of administration, classifies symptoms and complications—especially those from subcutaneous morphine use—and outlines therapeutic approaches and specific agents for withdrawal and recovery. Separate chapters discuss chloral's physiological effects and abstinence syndromes and summarize the rarer hashish habit. Underlying causes, social trends, and the medical community's role in propagating or treating these habits are considered throughout.
