Adolescent drug misuse requires preventive interventions that can reach students systematically through educational services. This study aimed to examine changes in tenth-grade students’ understanding of drug-related harms following classroom guidance. The study employed a Guidance and Counseling Action Research design conducted in two cycles involving 30 tenth-grade students at Yayasan Perguruan Islam Azizi Medan during the second semester of the 2024/2025 academic year. Data were collected through a drug-harm understanding questionnaire, observations of student engagement, and interviews as supporting data. Quantitative data were analyzed descriptively using mean scores and percentages across stages, while qualitative data were analyzed through data reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. The source manuscript also reported a paired-samples t-test indicating a significant difference between the two reported measurements, t(29) = -52.60, p < .001, with a mean difference of -44.20. Descriptively, the mean score increased from 81.47 (49%) at the pre-cycle stage to 115.04 (70%) in Cycle I and 158.80 (96%) in Cycle II. Observations indicated a shift from relatively passive participation in Cycle I to more active engagement in Cycle II. The findings suggest that improvements in Cycle II, particularly through discussion, question-and-answer activities, and contextual examples, were associated with increased student understanding. The study supports classroom guidance as a relevant preventive strategy for school-based drug education, while the findings should be interpreted in light of the action-research design without a comparison group
