description A significant portion of the various communities, especially developing countries, is involved in drug abuse and receive formal drug treatments. Although the benefits of available therapeutics such as methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) for controlling infectious diseases have been confirmed, treatment failure has been seen in a large range of the patients. This review addresses the importance of a less attentive behavioural approach in reducing treatment withdrawal. The executive protocol, the outcomes and challenges, and the benefits of this approach are debatable.
