| Resumo: | Our objective was to investigate the integrated assistance to drug addicts through the Psychosocial Attention Center and Family Health teams of a large city in the Southeast of Brazil. This is a historical descriptive study. From the 825 patients, most were males (82.3%), the 41 to 50 years age group was predominant (56.5%), and mental and behavioral disorders due to alcohol abuse were the most prevalent among males (38.1%) and, for females, the diagnostic caused by tobacco’s use and abuse (60.9%). Analyzing the integrated attention to drug addicts, we verified by the special distribution that most patients (57.9%) were not integrately attended by CPA and FHSs. It becomes urgent to strengthen and consolidate the family health strategy as a prioritary attention point of care for drug addicts in the psychosocial attention network. |
