Harm reduction consists of a series of strategies aimed at reducing the negative impacts of drug use on users.[1] It has been described as an alternative to the U.S.'s moral model and disease model of drug use and addiction.[2] While the moral model treats drug use as a morally wrong action and the disease model treats it as a biological or genetic disease needing medical intervention, harm reduction takes a public health approach with a basis in pragmatism.[2] Harm reduction provides an alternative to complete abstinence as a method for preventing and mitigating the negative consequences of drug use and addiction.[3]
