Resumo: The aging process is dynamic and progressive, and morphological and physiological changes lead to vulnerability and diseases. For control and treatment of these diseases, pharmacological intervention is still the major strategy. Thus, adherence to drug therapy is key to the effectiveness and safety of treatment. The aim of this study was to identify predictors of adherence to drug therapy in elderly patients using continuous medication. Methods: This is a cross-sectional, descriptive and analytical study that uses the application of a survey to elderly who attended the Senior Sorocaba Club and University of the Third Age. The research aimed to identify the adherence to pharmacological treatment through a questionnaire. Statistical analysis was performed using the chi-square model to correlate compliance/noncompliance. Results: With regard to compliance, it can be seen that seniors with chronic hypertension treatment (p=0.04) and dyslipidemia (p=0.01) showed greater adherence to the proposed treatment. Elderly patients with longer disease duration (p=0.04), those who received their medication from a Public Health Service (p=0.005) and lower economic classes (p=0.02) showed more compliance with treatment. Conclusions:The data from this study suggest that chronic diseases such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, which contain a greater risk for death, lead elderly people to comply more to the treatment. Lack of medication when accompanied by symptoms of diseases, show your needs, ensuring greater compliance. Compliance to pharmacological treatment was much more related to the disease condition and the risk it imposes as well as the economic condition than with the behavior of the elderly.

Para o controle e tratamento dessas doenças, a intervenção farmacológica ainda é a principal estratégia. Assim, a adesão à terapia medicamentosa é fundamental para a eficácia e segurança do tratamento. O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar preditores de adesão à terapia medicamentosa em pacientes idosos em uso de medicação contínua. Método: trata-se de um estudo transversal, descritivo e analítico que utiliza a aplicação de uma pesquisa a idosos que frequentavam o Clube da Terceira Idade Sorocaba e a Universidade da Terceira Idade. A pesquisa teve como objetivo identificar a adesão ao tratamento farmacológico através de um questionário. A análise estatística foi realizada por meio do modelo qui-quadrado para correlacionar conformidade/não conformidade. Resultados: No que se refere à adesão, pode-se observar que idosos com tratamento para hipertensão crônica (p = 0,04) e dislipidemia (p = 0,01) apresentaram maior adesão ao tratamento proposto. Pacientes idosos com maior tempo de doença (p = 0,04), que recebiam medicamentos em Serviço Público de Saúde (p = 0,005) e classes econômicas mais baixas (p = 0,02) apresentaram maior adesão ao tratamento. Conclusões: Os dados deste estudo sugerem que doenças crônicas como hipertensão, dislipidemia, que apresentam maior risco de morte, levam os idosos a aderir mais ao tratamento. A falta de medicamentos quando acompanhada de sintomas de doenças, mostra suas necessidades, garantindo maior adesão. A adesão ao tratamento farmacológico esteve muito mais relacionada ao quadro da doença e ao risco que ela impõe e à condição econômica do que ao comportamento do idoso.Sustenere Publishing2021-06-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://sustenere.inf.br/index.php/sciresalutis/article/view/565710.6008/CBPC2236-9600.2021.003.0006Scire Salutis; Vol. 11 No. 3 (2021): Scire Salutis - Jun, Jul, Ago, Set 2021; 38-45Scire Salutis; Vol. 11 Núm. 3 (2021): Scire Salutis - Jun, Jul, Ago, Set 2021; 38-45Scire Salutis; v. 11 n. 3 (2021): Scire Salutis - Jun, Jul, Ago, Set 2021; 38-452236-9600reponame:Scire Salutisinstname:Companhia Brasileira de Produção Científica (CBPC)instacron:ESSporhttps://sustenere.inf.br/index.php/sciresalutis/article/view/5657/3047Copyright (c) 2021 Scire Salutishttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSouza, Leandro AparecidoFiol, Fernando de Sá Del2023-01-04T20:16:52Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/5657Revistahttps://sustenere.co/index.php/sciresalutisONGhttps://sustenere.co/index.php/sciresalutis/oai||carlos@arvore.org.br2236-96002236-9600opendoar:2023-01-04T20:16:52Scire Salutis - Companhia Brasileira de Produção Científica (CBPC)false
