Resumo: | Objetive: To evaluate the pharmacological profile of the elderly attended by the Family Health Strategy (FHS). Methods: Cross-sectional study prospectively collected in a random sample of the elderly population registered in the FHS of Porto Alegre / RS. The elderly were interviewed by community health workers in homes who applied a general questionnaire containing information on drugs. The pharmacotherapeutic data were used to identify the active substances classified by the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System. Results: Were included 761 participants with mean age of 77.1 ± 10.3 years, most of them by females (63.9%), white (64.7%) and incomplete primary school (66.8%). The medication average was 4.1 ± 3.1 and the prevalence of use was 85.0%. The most frequently used anatomical groups were: cardiovascular system (80.1%), digestive system and metabolism (56.9%) and nervous system (46.8%). Regarding the prescription understanding, 75.4% recognized the drug by the characteristics of the packaging and 53.4% acquired in the public system. Pharmacological treatment was not adhered by 66.8%. Conclusion: As the elderly are the most used drugs, studies with this approach can contribute to the formulation of strategies attention to this population. |

Métodos: Estudo transversal, coletado de forma prospectiva em uma amostra aleatória da população idosa cadastrada na ESF de Porto Alegre/RS. Os idosos foram entrevistados nas residências pelos agentes comunitários de saúde que aplicaram um questionário geral, contendo informações sobre medicamentos. Os dados farmacoterapêuticos foram utilizados para identificar os princípios ativos, classificados pela Anatomical Therapeutical Chemical Classification System. Resultados: Foram incluídos 761 participantes com idade média de 77,1±10,3 anos, representados na sua maioria por mulheres (63,9%), cor branca (64,7%) e primeiro grau incompleto (66,8%). A média de medicamentos utilizados foi de 4,1±3,1 e a prevalência 85,0%. Os grupos anatômicos mais utilizados foram: sistema cardiovascular (80,1%), sistema digestivo e metabolismo (56,9%) e sistema nervoso (46,8%). Em relação ao entendimento, 75,4% dos idosos reconheciam o medicamento pelas características da embalagem e 53,4% adquiriam na rede pública. Não aderiam ao tratamento farmacológico 66,8%. Conclusão: Como os idosos são os que mais utilizam medicamentos, estudos com essa abordagem podem contribuir para formulação de estratégias de atenção a essa população.Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2019-08-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/revistasaude/article/view/3823810.5902/2236583438238Saúde (Santa Maria); Revista Saúde (Santa Maria), Vol.45, n.2, maio-ago. 2019; 13Saúde (Santa Maria); Revista Saúde (Santa Maria), Vol.45, n.2, maio-ago. 2019; 132236-58340103-4499reponame:Saúde (Santa Maria)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)instacron:UFSMporhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/revistasaude/article/view/38238/pdf_1Copyright (c) 2019 Saúde (Santa Maria)info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAndrade, Camila Pereira deEngroff, PaulaSgnaolin, VanessaGomes, IrenioTerra, Newton Luiz2019-11-11T15:08:14Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/38238Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/revistasaudePUBhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/revistasaude/oairevistasaude.ufsm@gmail.com || amanda.revsaude@gmail.com || beatriz.revsaude@gmail.com2236-58342236-5834opendoar:2019-11-11T15:08:14Saúde (Santa Maria) - Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)false |
