Club Drugs
• Club drugs tend to be used by teenagers and young adults at bars, nightclubs, concerts, and parties (NIDA)
• E.g. Cocaine, MDMA, Ketamine, GHB/GBL, methamphetamine
Novel Psychoactive Substances
• Psychoactive drugs which are not prohibited by the United Nations Drug Conventions but which may pose a public health threat comparable to that posed by substances listed in these conventions (UK Home Office)
• E.g. Cathinones, synthetic cannabinoids, piperazines

How should clinical services respond to the challenge of new trends?
![Page 14: Hitting a moving target Managing NPS harms Dr Owen Bowden-Jones Addiction Psychiatrist Imperial College London](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfea1a28abf838cb7543/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• New drugs – Little/no research into treatment– Harms still poorly understood – Already seeing unpredictable harms with ‘club drugs’
e.g. Ketamine bladder– Rapidly changing profile
• New populations– Different context of use e.g. methamphetamine and
high risk sexual behaviours– Not ‘typical’ drug user. – How to engage?

Challenge for specialist drug services
• Clinical staff have poor knowledge of changing patterns of drug use
– ‘technical’ knowledge (what are the drugs, how
do they work)– ‘cultural’ knowledge (who is using, how are they
using)– ‘clinical’ knowledge (how to clinical manage
acute/chronic presentation)– ‘service’ knowledge (when and where to refer)

NEPTUNE I• Raise standards in clinical
management of ‘club drugs’ including NPS across the health system, by…
• ..undertaking a comprehensive review of treatment research literature for NPS and club drugs, leading to…
• ..development of evidence-based clinical guidance
• Where evidence lacking, use expert consensus
![Page 19: Hitting a moving target Managing NPS harms Dr Owen Bowden-Jones Addiction Psychiatrist Imperial College London](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfea1a28abf838cb7543/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Guidance addressed•Acute club-drug toxicity and management of harms•Harms from chronic use of club-drugs: harmful and dependence and their management•Reduction of harms, patient safety and public health
Guidance aim to improve confidence and competence and increase the skills of clinicians•Screening /identification of harms•Assessment of harms•Management of harms

Main evaluation
To evaluate:
1.Impact of initiatives on treatment safety and patient outcomes2.How the implementation sites achieved their objectives (or not) and the factors associated with this 3.Impact of e-learning programmes on clinical knowledge and staff confidence

When will NEPTUNE be available?• Clinical guidance (NEPTUNE I) • www.neptune-clinical-guidance.co.uk • Associated tools (NEPTUNE II)• From end of 2015• Website hosted by Royal College of
Psychiatrists, UK• Free to all
![Page 39: Hitting a moving target Managing NPS harms Dr Owen Bowden-Jones Addiction Psychiatrist Imperial College London](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfea1a28abf838cb7543/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
But problems remain…
• Any clinical guidance will be out of date almost immediately
• Lack of toxicology. Who has taken what?• Effects of poly-substance use are
unpredictable• Longer term harms unknown. What to look
for?• How to engage NPS users in ‘traditional’ drug
treatment services?
![Page 40: Hitting a moving target Managing NPS harms Dr Owen Bowden-Jones Addiction Psychiatrist Imperial College London](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfea1a28abf838cb7543/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Conclusions
• NPS present a challenge for health services and policy makers
• Limited knowledge on clinical harms, user profiles, engagement strategies and treatment approaches
• Responses require adaptation of existing evidence-based interventions supported by investment in training and further research
• NEPTUNE an attempt to address this
