OBJECTIVE: to discuss prenatal care performed by nurses in Primary Health Care for pregnant women who use psychoactive substances. METHOD: a descriptive-exploratory study, with a qualitative approach, carried out in six Primary Health Care Units in a city in Minas Gerais. Data collection took place through semi-structured interviews with nine nurses who performed prenatal consultations. The content analysis technique was used for data treatment. RESULTS: difficulties with pregnant women's adherence to prenatal care and their participation in educational groups. Nurses also identified the psychoactive substances most used by pregnant women and reported addressing the harms of substance use, to encourage the choice to reduce use. CONCLUSION: the pregnant women's concern about treatment was poor and resulted in low adherence to the programs offered in Primary Care, which proved to be a public health problem, which requires reoriented care practices for this clientele.
