The target population of the study was defined through non-probabilistic sampling and the data were obtained based on the application of 3 distinct questionnaires directed to managers (6 participants), health professionals (25 participants), active in the Family Health Strategies and users (50 participants) of this health service in the urban area. It was observed that 92% of health professionals had good acceptance about the insertion of phytotherapy in the Unified Health Sistem. Among managers, there was unanimity regarding the implementation of herbal medicine in primary care as an alternative treatment. According to the managers interviewed, 67% of users requested alternative treatments in health facilities.
