The study aimed to discuss the conflicts of compulsory commitment of crack users. A systematic review was conducted on compulsory treatment. The search was conducted in databases: Scopus, PubMed, SciELO, Web of Science, Elsevier and Medline, as well as in Google and Google Scholar, from 2000 to 2017. The primary endpoint of interest was the use of post-treatment drugs. The secondary outcome of interest was post-treatment criminal recidivism. Of a total of 448 potential studies identified, twelve studies met the inclusion criteria. It was denoted that compulsory hospitalization, besides being aggressive and an ineffective treatment, constitutes a way of eliminating the unwanted, constituting a hygienist practice that violates human rights.
