To understand the distribution and related risk factors of HIV infection among drug users in Guangxi. Three hundred and twenty five drug users were tested for serum HIV antibody, with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. One hundred and sixteen drug users (35.7%) were found to be HIV positive. The main risk factors associated with HIV infection were intravenous drug users and needle sharing among drug users. The HIV prevalence was 40.9% (114/279) among IDUs, and only 4.3% (2/46) among oral drug users. The phenomenon of sharing injecting equipment (76.7%) among intravenous drug users in Guangxi represents a very serious problem. There is a high risk of HIV infection among drug users in Guangxi. Prevention programs urgently need to be implemented.
