Drug abuse treatment programs can help reduce high-risk sexual behavior in drug users by promoting condom use. This study examined the influence of distribution location and poster prompts on the taking of free condoms in a drug abuse treatment clinic. Over 6 months, condoms were available alternately, with and without poster prompts, in the clinic's private restroom or public waiting area. Overall, 381% more condoms were taken from the restroom. The presence of poster prompts did not affect condom taking. These results suggest that distribution location is a critical factor in promoting condom taking in public clinic.
