ABSTRACT
In this issue of the Journal, Welsh et al.5 revise and update the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) "Principles of Adolescent Substance Use Disorder Treatment,"6 and the practice recommendations based on these principles, published by Winters et al. in 2018.7 These principles and recommendations are solidly grounded in current research and reemphasize individualized, voluntary, readily available, comprehensive, and integrated long-term treatment that is not solely focused on detoxification; that addresses biopsychosocial issues and comorbid psychiatric diagnoses; and that is tailored to specific populations. They also recommend addressing misuse without disorder, using annual routine medical visits as opportunities for screening, and engaging families and legal systems to promote treatment adherence. However, the problem of adolescent substance use has been presented with new challenges.
