Objective: Suicide attempt is more common among substance users than general population. There are several risk factors effect suicide attempt among substance users. Polysubstance use and aggression are the most two important risk factors for suicide attempt. However, it is unclear how aggression and polysubstance use, and their interaction are associated with suicide attempts among substance users. Method: It was studied with 257 participants who completed the socio-demographic form (including substance use and suicide attempt history) and Hostility Scale to assess the aggression. Lifetime suicide attempt was assessed by the question as "Have you ever tried to kill yourself or have you ever attempt suicide?" Polysubstance use was assessed by the question "How many drug do you use? Results: To find the predictive variable of suicide attempts logistic regression analysis was conducted. The analysis indicate that the best predictors of suicide attempt was having friends with substance use behavior in childhood of adolescent period, having substance users in family members, polysubstance use and aggression; but there was no a significant interaction between polysubstance use and aggression on suicide attempt. Discussion: It is clear that aggression and polysubstance use are important risk factors for suicide attempts. For this reason, it is recommended that anger management based studies should be carry out to prevent suicidal behavior among substance users.
