The topic of “drugs” has been studied by several sectors especially society, education,and health. This study aims to understand the perception of undergraduate Nursing and Medicine teachers about care related to drug use in the context of social and health policies. This is phenomenological research, according to the perspective of Maurice Merleau-Ponty, carried out from November 2015 to May 2016, with ten teachers, through a semi-structured interview. The information produced was submitted to the Analytical Technique of Ambiguity, which originated two thematic axes corresponding to the results of the study. The contributions of phenomenological thinking about drug-related care have enabled to relearn the phenomenon from a new perspective and to recognize the need to broaden the debate on the topic within the University.
