Resumen

La transmisión del VIH/SIDA entre consumidores de drogas se asocia con factores como, educación, prácticas sexuales y consumo de sustancias. Este estudio examinó los conocimientos 159 usuarios de drogas, las creencias y el comportamiento sexual relacionado con el riesgo de VIH / SIDA en Costa Rica. Los resultados mostraron un uso considerable de marihuana, alcohol, crack y cocaína y una incidencia muy baja de otras drogas. Todos los patrones de consumo de sustancias fueron más altos que los promedios nacionales. Los encuestados mostraron un alto nivel de conocimiento sobre la transmisión y prevención del VIH/SIDA. Se concluye que el tener el conocimiento adecuado sobre la transmisión y prevención no garantiza las prácticas de sexo seguro. Nuevas investigaciones y prácticas basadas en la evidencia de salud pública para la prevención del VIH / SIDA deben dirigirse población de usuarios de drogas
