The National Centre for Clinical Research on Emerging Drugs (NCCRED) commissioned the National Centre for Enducation and Training on Addiction (NCETA) to review Australian methamphetamine-related clinical guidelines.
Twenty-seven methamphetamine-related clinical guidelines were identified, some of which solely addressed methamphetamine (or stimulants) specifically, while others were generic but had component parts of relevance.
From this, NCETA developed a purpose-built framework to map each guideline according to treatment setting and target population. The methamphetamine-related guidelines matrix is an online representation of the framework developed by NCETA.
