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.
