The paper introduces HarmReduction, a benchmark for evaluating large language models (LLMs) on their ability to provide accurate and safe harm reduction information to people who use drugs (PWUD). The benchmark, HR-Basic, contains 2,160 question‑answer‑evidence pairs covering safety boundary checks, quantitative value provision, and polysubstance risk inference. Experiments show that even state‑of‑the‑art LLMs struggle with accuracy and can pose severe safety risks, underscoring the need for a dedicated evaluation framework.

arXiv:2508. 00923v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to answer health-related questions and support healthcare workflows, yet evidence for their safety still relies heavily on static benchmarks that can rapidly become obsolete or be optimized against.
