Opium is one of the medica material that have an ancient history as a drug.

Probably, since 10th century AH opium addiction has become one of the social problems and since the same time Persian traditional scientists have introduced different methods of its treatment. In this study, we first investigate the history of opium and its addiction in Persian traditional medicine books, such as Alhavi and Qanoon and books of scientists before and after them and then we investigate the methods of addiction treatment based on the opinions of Persian traditional scientists. Results of investigations indicate the accuracy of Persian traditional medicine findings about medical effects, side-effects and withdrawal symptoms of opium addiction treatment and their wise approach toward treatment of opium addiction that can greatly help solving this social problem.
