The abuse of psychtropic drugs is nowadays a serious problem of public health and the basic school is called to contribute with its prevention. We judge it's important to identify the social representations of a group of teachers of basic education about drugs. For this we used a form with the following sentence: For you, drugs are... . Taking this as base procedures to the analyse of content seeking to identify some aspects of the representations of this professional group. We verified that they understand drugs as something extremely harmful, that produce psycological, physical, social, spiritual and moral damages, most times irreversible. Concluded that the programs of beginning continued formation of teachers must colaborate in the magnification of these representations also to provoke a transformation in the teaching practice.
