Abstract:

The present study codifies drug misuse health care experiences based upon harm reduction guidelines in Brazil and worldwide. A bibliographical study was conducted of publications in Portuguese and in English over the past ten years hosted on the SciELO, LILACS, MEDLINE and PsycINFO databases. After the selection of the corpus, meta-synthesis was carried out in order to integrate the material obtained. It was possible to identify and analyze advances and deadlocks in the implementation of harm reduction strategies, and to compare the different approaches identified in the services and care activities offered to users. We noticed that Harm Reduction has become consolidated as a prevention and health care strategy; therefore, it is essential that more academic and scientific production in this area is conducted.
