This thesis deals with the ethical attitudes of professionals working with Methadone or Subutex assisted rehabilitation, concerning the constructed guidelines and directions from the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare.

In order to gather information in the subject, qualitative interviews with nurses, toxicologist, doctor, and welfare officer/investigator were made.
