OBJECTIVE: to characterize the epidemiological profile of intensive care hospitalizations due to the side effects of alcohol use and other drugs. METHOD: a cross-sectional study of 138 hospital admission in an adult intensive care unit of a teaching hospital, by side effects to abuse of drug intoxication. Descriptive and univariate statistics were used. RESULTS: the mean annual hospitalizations were 27.6/month, and the majority of males (89.1%), mean age of 47.9 years, chronic alcohol users (92.75%) and with organic disease secondary to drugs use (66.64%). The mean length of hospital stay was 16.6 days, and 38.4% died. CONCLUSION: in this study, critically ill male patients, at an economically active age, were subjected to chronic alcohol use and a long hospitalization period. Deaths were statistically associated with age greater than 40 years, diseases of the digestive system and hospitalizations lasting up to 17 days.
