Abstract

Despite the fact that narcotics are essential for treatment and health care if they are taken improperly or outside the parameters of prescribed therapy, it leads to drug abuse. People who need assistance include drug addicts and those who have been the victims of drug abuse. The rehabilitation procedure, specifically medical and social rehabilitation, is the help in this situation. Drug addicts and victims of drug abuse must be safeguarded. For the treatment and recovery of drug addicts and victims of drug abuse, rehabilitation is preferable to incarceration. Medical rehabilitation can be seen of as an endeavor to treat drug addicts and victims of drug abuse in this case, which is relevant to the issue of medical rehabilitation. This study employs a normative juridical method in the study of law. Primary and secondary data are used, and they are both subjected to quantitative analysis. The study's findings are as follows: Based on the findings of an integrated assessment, legal rehabilitation is carried out.
