Abstract
Illicit drug use, and the associated health problems, is a frequent issue encountered by medical providers. Because of its salience as a piece of health care information, drug use history is often included in patient charts and presentations by house staff and medical students. However, if used and recorded inappropriately, drug use history can have significant long-lasting effects on the perception of patients in a system where they have little agency.
