Resumo: The study aimed to analyze the association of anxiety and the use of anxiolytics among college students in the health area. This is a sectional study of the web-survey type, with a sample of 286 college students from some courses in the health area. Data collection occurred through electronic forms in Google forms sent by e-mail and Instagram social network. A higher frequency of clonazepam use (n= 31; 62%; p= 0.588) was associated with high trait anxiety. There was a preponderance of the use of the same drug (n= 30; 60%; p= 0.982) related to moderate state anxiety. These occurrences were more pronounced in female college students (42.3%) and those who attended public institutions (55.3%). Given this, it is concluded that higher education institutions should invest in awareness-raising actions on the use of anxiolytics and aimed at minimizing anxiety in this population.

Portuguese version of the article: https://doi.org/10.1590/SciELOPreprints.4348El estudio tuvo como objetivo analizar la asociación de la ansiedad y el uso de ansiolíticos entre los estudiantes universitarios del área de la salud. Se trata de un estudio seccional, de tipo encuesta web, con una muestra de 286 estudiantes universitarios de algunos cursos del área de la salud. La recopilación de datos se realizó mediante formularios electrónicos de Google enviados por correo electrónico y la red social Instagram. Se percibió una mayor frecuencia de uso de Clonazepam (n= 31; 62%; p= 0,588) asociada a la ansiedad de alto nivel. También hubo una preponderancia del uso del mismo fármaco (n= 30; 60%; p= 0,982) relacionado con la ansiedad estatal moderada. Estos sucesos fueron más pronunciados en las mujeres universitarias (42,3%) y que asistieron a instituciones públicas (55,3%). Ante esto, se concluye que las instituciones de educación superior deben invertir en acciones de sensibilización sobre el uso de ansiolíticos, y dirigidas a minimizar la ansiedad en esta población.

Trata-se de um estudo seccional, do tipo web-survey, com amostra de 286 estudantes universitários de alguns cursos da área da saúde. A coleta de dados ocorreu por meio de formulários eletrônicos no Google forms enviados por e-mail e rede social Instagram. Percebeu-se uma frequência maior de uso de Clonazepam (n= 31; 62%; p= 0,588) associado à ansiedade traço alta. Assim como houve uma preponderância do uso do mesmo medicamento (n= 30; 60%; p= 0,982) relacionado à ansiedade estado moderada. Essas ocorrências foram mais acentuadas em estudantes universitárias do sexo feminino (42,3%) e que frequentavam instituições públicas (55,3%). Diante disso, conclui-se que as instituições de ensino superior devem investir em ações de conscientização sobre o uso de ansiolíticos, e que visem a minimização da ansiedade dessa população.
