ABSTRACT
Dual pathology is often found in addiction and mental health centers. Although there are integrated services for these patients, most countries have developed joint action protocols between addiction and mental health centers. The objective is to analyze the progress of patients diagnosed with dual pathology, comparing the therapeutic outcomes of those who exclusively attend either addiction or mental health centers with those patients who follow a program in which the two services are coordinated. It is hypothesized that patients assisted in coordinate manner will present a better evolution on psychopathological symptomatology, drug use and functional impairment.
