Aplicou-se questionario autoadministrado a 119 estudantes, contendo informacoes gerais, sociodemograficas, economicas, pessoais, familiares, socioculturais e sobre o consumo de drogas. O estudo evidenciou que os estudantes possuem fatores protetores para a prevencao do consumo ou avanco ao uso problematico de drogas, embora possuam tambem fatores de risco importantes como estilos de vida nao saudaveis e consumo de drogas de pessoas proximas (familiares, amigos e companheiros). Alem disso, ficou evidente que o perfil de consumo de drogas tanto licitas como ilicitas e similar ao que se observa no cenario nacional e internacional. Importante destacar que, apesar do consumo de alcool e tabaco ocupar o primeiro lugar, tanto para os estudantes selecionados como em nivel nacional, eles nao o consideram problema tao grande comparado com drogas ilicitas.The aim of this quantitative, descriptive, transversal study was to characterize drug use among students in the second year of the Nursing Degree course. The sample of 119 students answered a questionnaire divided into: general information, sociodemographic, economic, personal, familiar, sociocultural and drug usage. The study showed that students possess factors that protect them from drug usage and the acquisition of drug habits; but that they also have risk factors which must be taken into consideration in prevention programs, such as unhealthy life styles or drug abusage in people close to them (family, friends or classmates). We found that the profile of drugs used, containing both legal and illegal drugs, was similar to those in the national and international context. It is important to emphasize that even though the consumption of alcohol and tobacco occupy the highest places, in the student environment as well as nationally, these are not considered as problematic as the illegal drugs.
