Resumo

DA ROCHA CABRAL, Juliana et al. Adherence to antiretroviral therapy and the association in the use of alcohol and psychoactive substances. Enferm. glob. [online]. 2018, vol.17, n.52, pp.1-35.  Epub 01-Out-2018. ISSN 1695-6141.  https://dx.doi.org/10.6018/eglobal.17.4.296651.

Objective

To evaluate the adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and its correlation with the consumption of alcohol and other drugs in people living with HIV/Aids.

Material and Method

This study is a descriptive, cross-sectional research with quantitative approach. It was developed with 184 users of a Specialized HIV/Aids Assistance Service.

Results

Adherence to ART was classified as regular (67.4%), good (32.1%) and low (0.5%). Marijuana abuse/dependence and regular/low ART adherence was (100%), followed by tobacco (77.1%), marijuana (75%) and alcohol (73.5%). The degree of drug dependence was not evaluated as a determinant factor for good adherence to ART.

Conclusion

It is observed that there is only a tendency for PLWHA users of licit and illicit drugs to have a regular/bad adherence. Thus, it is essential to maintain health promotion interventions within the specialized services in HIV/Aids to ensure the promotion of a satisfactory adherence.
