    Area of Science:

    • Pharmacology
    • Public Health
    • Addiction Medicine

    Background:

    • Chlorodyne is currently available without a prescription.
    • Concerns exist regarding potential misuse and dependence.
    • Limited data is available on the prevalence of chlorodyne dependence.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe cases of chlorodyne dependence.
    • To estimate the prevalence of chlorodyne dependence in Greater London.
    • To assess the prognosis for individuals dependent on chlorodyne.

    Main Methods:

    • Case series of eight patients presenting to a London drug clinic.
    • Inquiry among pharmacies in central and south London regarding chlorodyne supply.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • Eight cases of chlorodyne dependence were identified.
    • The study suggests chlorodyne dependence is more prevalent in younger populations than previously thought.
    • An estimated 1,000 individuals in Greater London may be dependent on chlorodyne.
    • The prognosis for curing chlorodyne dependence is poor.

    Conclusions:

    • Chlorodyne dependence appears to be a significant public health issue, especially among younger demographics.
    • Current over-the-counter availability may contribute to the problem.
    • Restricting access to chlorodyne is recommended to mitigate dependence.
