In conclusion, the lack of clinical data limit the generalizability of our findings, and some perspectives remain speculative. All conclusions are based on current literature data and are thus preliminary. However, we offer a framework, after few weeks of pandemic and quarantine. Current strategies should include systematic assessment of addiction comorbidity during this almost worldwide lockdown, to propose adequate and personalized strategies. Clear and accessible information is necessary to prevent COVID-19 and addictions adverse outcomes for these highly vulnerable subjects. This involves access to guidelines for primary caregivers, physicians, and public health managers. Improving telemedicine services will have a significant long-term positive impact on patient care, that will persist even after this pandemic. It will be the only way to mitigate the SUD pandemic.
