Abstract

Objective: to sociodemographically characterize and outline the pharmacotherapeutic profile
of the users treated in two Psychosocial Care Centers III Alcohol and Drugs, one for children/
adolescents/adults and the other for adults. Methodology: a documentary, exploratory and
descriptive study with a quantitative and qualitative approach, through the analysis of medical
records and semi-structured interviews. Results: a total of 156 users were included, most of whom
were male, single, black- or brown-skinned, with Incomplete Elementary School, unemployed,
and aged between 18 and 29 years old. The drug of choice was marijuana and use initiation
was mostly in the age group of 7 to 15 years old. Drug prescription as addiction management
occurs in 65% of the cases, with benzodiazepines and antidepressants as the most prescribed
medications. Conclusion: the sociodemographic profile found is compatible with the literature
and the impact of the social factors that lead to vulnerability in the users is closely related to
the use of psychoactive substances. Medication use in chemical addiction is still an uncertain
intervention due to the physical and mental problems resulting from this addiction, to the drug
interactions and to those between the medications and the substances used, in addition to
adherence to medication, oftentimes leading to an exchange of “drugs” for “drugs”.
