“…A study conducted with women who use alcohol shows a higher prevalence of psychological and physical violence in this population (Santos et al, 2020). Risk factors for violence against women include drug use, family history of violence, and violent partner behavior (Silva, Souza, et al, 2021). Involvement with men who use drugs increases the risk of psychological, physical, and sexual violence against women (Silva, Rocha-Brischiliari, et al, 2021).…”

“…Due to the intense need to use drugs, women cannot negotiate for safe sex, being exposed to sexually transmitted diseases (Silva, Rocha-Brischiliari, et al, 2021). Women who use drugs are more exposed to sexual violence and unwanted pregnancy because men refuse to use condoms (Leite et al, 2019;Silva, Souza, et al, 2021). Sexual abuse leads to physical and psychological trauma.…”

“…For society, drug use is meant for men and not for women (Medeiros et al, 2017). However, drug use by women and men is already becoming similar, with both using almost the same amount of some drugs (Silva, Souza, et al, 2021). Discussions about the problem of drug use should not be only about gender issues, but also involve public and social policies that facilitate the access of this population to health services, reducing the impact of drug use (Medeiros et al, 2017).…”

It is estimated that 275 million people in the world between 15 and 64 years old used drugs of abuse in 2020. In the same year, the Brazilian Federal Police seized about 546,439.57 kg of marijuana and 91,234.87 kg of cocaine, demonstrating that the use and abuse of psychoactive substances are on the rise in everyday life. This study aimed to describe the profile of seizures of marijuana, cocaine and crack, carried out by the Civil Police, in the region of Betim in the state of Minas Gerais. This is a descriptive observational study, carried out on a documentary basis, in the years 2017 and 2018. The information was collected through the analysis of the final reports issued by the Betim Police Department, and the Social Defense Event Records (REDS). The results demonstrate that 568 definitive reports and REDS were analyzed, and the sociodemographic profile of the individual apprehended in connection with illicit drugs is composed mainly of men (86.4%), single (86.6%), with incomplete elementary education (33.2%), with a median age of 20 years. The 24 hour Police Station (88%) and the north region Police Station (22.7%) were where the largest seizures took place; illicit drug trafficking (85.6%) was the main crime related to these seizures, and marijuana was the most seized drug (51.1%). Knowledge of the profile of drug seizures in this region allows for the creation of prevention measures for the trafficking and use of illicit drugs, contributing to the improvement of public health and safety.
