“…Harm reduction strategies (HRS, i.e., individual practices aimed at reducing drug-related negative consequences) such as avoiding mixing stimulants and planning drug use sessions, are widely employed by people who use multiple drugs in the dance music scene (Fernández-Calderón et al, 2013;. It has been demonstrated that HRS use is linked to a decrease in health-related negative consequences in CPU (Vera et al, 2020). However, in spite of the fact that SPU is associated with greater harms than CPU, to our knowledge, no previous research has examined the effectiveness of HRS in reducing drug-related harms among people who use multiple drugs simultaneously.…”

“…Sin embargo, entre quienes mezclan alcohol, éxtasis y estimulantes, se observó un patrón de respuestas recurrentes. Entre éstos, la estrategia cognitiva más empleada fue la planificación de la sesión de consumo, una estrategia de protección efectiva para la reducción de las consecuencias negativas en consumidores/as de alcohol (Pearson, & Henson, 2013) y en policonsumidores/ as de sustancias (Boeri et al, 2008;Hunt et al, 2009;Vera et al, 2020). Sin embargo, el orden de uso de las sustancias y, por lo tanto, la previa planificación de la sesión de consumo parece cumplir también un rol importante en los efectos buscados (Brache et al, 2012;Hunt et al, 2009).…”

“…Finalmente, es importante señalar que, llamativamente, no se han informado, entre las estrategias mencionadas, algunas que han mostrado relacionarse con una menor probabilidad de experimentar consecuencias negativas, tales como, las estrategias colectivas de protección (Schmidt et al, 2020;Van Havere et al, 2014), adquirir las sustancias sólo de fuentes fiables (Vera et al, 2020) y el testeo de sustancias (Morgan & Jones, 2019;Peters et al, 2008). Al respecto, consideramos importante analizar más profundamente las razones por las cuales los/as consumidores/as no emplean con frecuencia este tipo de estrategias de reducción de daños, así como proponer maneras de fomentar su uso.…”
