Abstract
This study aimed to understand the conceptions of Brazilian health professionals on drug use/abuse. It is an academic literature review in the following databases: MEDLINE,LILACS,IBECS and Scielo. The final sample consisted of 22 articles,with the results pointing to a predominance of moral and naturalized conceptions about drug use,guided by biomedical model rather than psychosocial,socio-cultural or even biopsychosocial perspectives. In the case of a multi-faceted and complex problem,answers’ attempts should go in the direction of breadth and comprehensiveness,thinking drug use beyond a mere disease,or necessarily a bad thing,but understanding the physical,psychological and social aspects that pervade it. For the reversal of this scenario,it is necessary training/capacity building in the area,but reflecting the premises and methodologies that underlie these training processes.
