Resumo: The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of use of licit and illicit drugs and verify the behavioral profile among truck drivers. A total of 697 truck drivers were interviewed at a gas station on BR-153, between from February 2014 to February 2015. The questionnaire ASSIST was applied to screening the use of alcoholic beverages, tobacco and illicit drugs. Sociodemographic information and professional were also collected. Urine samples were screened for licit and illicit drugs. All of truckers were male, median age of 42 years, most of them married and low scholarity. 47% related moderate or high consumption of alcohol and tobacco and need a brief intervention. 21% use of cocaine, cannabinoids, amphetamine, hypnotics/sedatives, opioids, inhalants and need specialist treatment. From the 697 participants, 94% provided urine samples. 10,5% were positive for drugs. 5,2% were positive for cocaine, 2,6% for cannabinoids, 2,0% for amphetamine, 0,4% for benzodiazepines, 0,3% positive for methamphetamines and 1,4% for combined use of two drugs. Young and single truckers use tobacco, cannabis and amphetamines and need to receive brief intervention for these drugs. Truck drivers in the northern region of low education, require specialized treatment for tobacco. Truck drivers make high use of tobacco, alcohol, cocaine and other ilicit drugs. Measures are needed to improve quality of life to the drivers, as well as to prevent and treat individuals who use licit and illicit drugs in order to reduce engagement with traffic accidents.

Se entrevistó a 697 camioneros en una gasolinera de la BR-153, de febrero 2014 a febrero 2015. Se aplicó el cuestionario ASSIST para rastrear el consumo de bebidas alcohólicas, tabaco y drogas ilícitas. También se recogió información sociodemográfica y profesional. Se analizaron muestras de orina para detectar drogas lícitas e ilícitas. Los conductores de camiones eran hombres, con una edad media de 42 años, la mayoría de los cuales estaban casados y tenían un nivel educativo bajo. El 47% informó un consumo moderado o alto de alcohol y tabaco y necesitaría una breve intervención y 21% consumía cocaína, cannabinoides, anfetaminas, hipnóticos/sedantes, opioides, inhalantes y necesitan tratamiento especializado. De los 697 participantes, el 94% proporcionó muestras de orina. El 10,5% fueron positivos a fármacos; 5,2% fueron positivos para cocaína, 2,6% para cannabinoides, 2,0% para anfetaminas, 0,4% para benzodiazepinas, 0,3% para metanfetaminas y 1,4% para el uso combinado de drogas. Los conductores de camiones jóvenes y solteros consumían tabaco, marihuana y anfetaminas y necesitaban recibir una breve intervención. Para los camioneros de la región Norte, con bajo nivel educativo, era necesario un tratamiento especializado para el tabaquismo. Los camioneros consumen mucho tabaco, alcohol, cocaína y otras drogas. Se necesitan medidas para mejorar la calidad de vida de los conductores, así como para prevenir y tratar a los usuarios de drogas, con el fin de reducir la participación en accidentes de tráfico.O objetivo deste estudo foi estimar a prevalência do uso de drogas lícitas e ilícitas e verificar o perfil comportamental de caminhoneiros.
