💨 Abstract

The Punjab government's Outpatient Opioid Assisted Treatment (OOAT) clinic in Jalandhar dispenses Buprenorphine and Naloxone to combat drug addiction. Despite government efforts, challenges persist, including insufficient infrastructure, manpower, and reliable data. A police crackdown on drug supply has been met with mixed feelings, and addressing the demand and societal issues is seen as crucial for long-term success.
