Evidence exists that’s harm reduction interventions prevent negative consequences of problematic substance abuse. But still governments don’t endorsee these interventions. This paper analysis the ethical theories on two that bears on the problems of substance abuse. These two problems are harm reduction approaches and abstinence based approaches. Three ethical models are used to analyze the conflict between abstinence based approaches and harm reduction approaches. Usually principals of autonomy, no maleficence, beneficence and justice are applied to address these issues in the ethical field. But in this paper Deontological ethics, Utilitarianism and Aristotle’s theory of ethics will be used. This paper analyzed all the objections against harm reduction according to ethical theories. It is revealed that all harm reduction interventions are justified on the basis of utilitarian theory as all such policies will provide benefit to the huge number of population. But according to deontological theory, values guiding harm reduction are not ethical because interventions focus on examining the consequences. Thus it is essential to find equilibrium between the two approaches.

This article discusses the dilemma of lack of consensus in the field of psychiatry regarding the basis for ethical judgment making and deciding the corresponding action. Various theories of ethics are discussed in the article Kantianism, Utilitarianism, principle-based ethics, Virtue theory and Ethics of care. All these theories are in contradiction to each other thus cause confusion and immobilize the clinicians. These theories are applied in the fields of bioethics by the psychiatrics and modern philosophers. Paper suggests that all the shortcomings can be minimized if we address the rule based and character based ethics by proffering flexibility in the clinical practices. Instead of perusing single theoretical framework, psychiatrists should gather strengths of well-suited approaches. Complementarity of principlism is proposed as solution, with its focus on the respect on autonomy, non-maleficence, beneficence, justice and care ethics as variants of virtue theory.

Bartels, D. M., & Pizarro, D. A. (2011). The mismeasure of morals: Antisocial personality traits predict utilitarian responses to moral dilemmas. Cognition, 121(1), 154–161. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cognition.2011.05.010
This article focuses on the uniqueness of moral judgments, attitudes, normativity and moral dilemmas. It questions the detection of utilitarian reactions with optimum ethical judgment by exhibiting the ratification of utilitarian resolutions to a set of frequently availed moral dilemmas. The moral dilemmas associate with mental personas that can be categorized as insensitive and devious. These results are assumed to give rise to a significant procedural apprehension i.e. optimum morality. The paper delivers the proof that the utilitarian inclinations are allied with a diversity of mental behaviors linked with the clinical masses.
The article demonstrates that the extensively adapted use of sacrificial dilemmas in the study of ethical verdict fails to discriminate among people who are driven to ratify utilitarian moral sets. This authorization transpires because of the original emotional shortages. The paper also discusses how these demonstrations give rise to a practical concern in the study of ethical ruling that people should be cautious of supporting a technique that associates the worth of ethical judgment with reactions that are endorsed chiefly by entities that are professed to be less ethical. The pragmatic demonstration points to the tricky nature of learning ethical decision by recognizing faults in how entities react to ethical dilemmas.
