Harm Reduction Disease prevalence and rates of infection Is distribution model better than exchange model for iV drug use and users? Law How far is this model pushing the law? How will police officers interact with greater incidence of needles among some criminals they come in contact with? Ethics Enabling Pros Users get amount of needles they need Less regulation may or may not be helpful for users Better for transient populations with unreliable/unstable housing. Cons People may not bring needles back. Distribution makes it appear as though there is increased level of support for very negative behavior. Model could disrupt intimate relationship that the exchange currently has with clients. Lack of multiple points of contact with clients Potentially greater cost Psychology Potential for recovery Addiction Sociology Relationships between users and nonusers Relationships between users Economics Epidemiology HIV/HCV
