Resumo: | The use of contraceptives is a practice for which there is a large adherence, however, such procedure can bring risk when the chronic use and not prescribed by a medical professional, and, even with the appropriate prescription, the lack of monitoring of the use can increase the risks of occurrence of adverse reactions. The present study is an exploratory, analytical research, which aimed to evaluate the pattern of use of oral contraceptive medications (OC) by women and specifically the occurrence of adverse reactions arising from the use of these medications, by sharing a questionnaire in social media, with questions about adherence to contraceptive therapy and how the use of such medications by women who agreed to participate in the research. It was observed that, of a total of 233 women who agreed to participate in the research, 65.4% had been using contraceptives for a period between 5 and 10 years. It was also possible to observe that 63.2% of them had headache as the predominant adverse reaction (P<0.05, ANOVA), but the occurrence of serious adverse reactions such as thrombosis (4.2%) was also observed, and that 87.9% of these acquired such drugs without asking for a medical prescription at the time of purchase. These results allow us to conclude that, in the population studied, there is a high rate of chronic use of contraceptives, many of which are being used without medical advice and presenting a significant occurrence of adverse reactions, bringing to light the need for health professionals to promote the monitoring and medical prescription of contraceptives, and highlighting the problem of sale/dispensing without prescription, which can act as a trigger to maximize the occurrence of adverse reactions and non-rational and abusive use of such medications. |

El presente estudio trata de una investigación exploratoria, analítica, en la que se pretende evaluar el patrón de uso de los medicamentos anticonceptivos orales (ACO) por parte de las mujeres y específicamente la ocurrencia de reacciones adversas al uso de estos medicamentos, mediante el planteamiento de un cuestionario, en medios sociales, con preguntas versando sobre la adhesión a la terapia anticoncepcional y la forma en que se hace el uso de estos medicamentos por parte de las mujeres que coincidieron en participar de la investigación. Se observó que, de un total de 233 mujeres que aceptaron participar en la investigación, el 65,4% utilizó anticonceptivos durante un periodo de entre 5 y 10 años. También se pudo observar que el 63,2% de ellos presentaron cefalea como reacción adversa predominante (P<0,05, ANOVA), pero también se observó la aparición de reacciones adversas graves como la trombosis (4,2%) y que el 87,9% de estos adquirieron dichos medicamentos sin solicitar prescripción médica en el momento de la compra. Dichos resultados permiten concluir que, en la población estudiada, existe un alto índice de uso crónico de anticonceptivos, muchos de los cuales hacen dicho uso sin consejo médico y presentan una importante ocurrencia de reacciones adversas, sacando a la luz la necesidad de actuación por parte de los profesionales de la salud en cuanto a la promoción del control y la prescripción médica de anticonceptivos, y resaltando el problema de la venta/dispensación sin receta, que puede actuar como desencadenante para maximizar la ocurrencia de reacciones adversas y el uso no racional y abusivo de dichos medicamentos.O uso de anticoncepcionais é uma prática para a qual há uma grande adesão, porém, tal procedimento pode trazer risco quando do uso crônico e não prescrito por profissional médico, e, mesmo com a prescrição adequada, a falta de acompanhamento do uso pode aumentar os riscos de ocorrência de reações adversas. O presente estudo trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória, analítica, na qual se objetivou avaliar o padrão do uso de medicamentos anticoncepcionais orais (ACO) por mulheres e especificamente a ocorrência de reações adversas decorrentes do uso destes medicamentos, mediante compartilhamento de um questionário, em mídias sociais, com questões versando sobre a adesão a terapia anticoncepcional e a forma como se dá o uso de tais medicamentos por parte das mulheres que concordaram em participar da pesquisa. Observou-se que, de um total de 233 mulheres que concordaram em participar da pesquisa, 65,4% utilizavam anticoncepcional por um período compreendido entre 5 e 10 anos. Também foi possível observar que 63,2% delas apresentaram dor de cabeça como reação adversa predominante (P<0,05, ANOVA), porém também observando-se a ocorrência de reações adversas graves, como trombose (4,2%) e que 87,9% destas adquiriu tais medicamentos sem que fosse solicitada a prescrição médica no ato da compra. Tais resultados permitem concluir que, na população estudada, há um elevado índice de uso crônico de anticoncepcionais, muitas das quais fazendo tal uso sem orientação médica e apresentando uma importante ocorrência de reações adversas, trazendo a tona a necessidade da atuação de profissionais de saúde no que concerne à promoção do acompanhamento e prescrição médica de contraceptivos, e evidenciando a problemática da venda/ dispensação sem apresentação de receita, o que pode funcionar como gatilho para maximizar a ocorrência de reações adversas e de uso não racional e abusivo de tais medicamentos.Research, Society and Development2022-07-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/3207310.33448/rsd-v11i9.32073Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 No. 9; e52111932073Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 Núm. 9; e52111932073Research, Society and Development; v. 11 n. 9; e521119320732525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/32073/27373Copyright (c) 2022 Talita da Silva Barbosa; Matheus Diniz Gonçalves Coêlho; Samara Nonato de Sousahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBarbosa, Talita da Silva Coêlho, Matheus Diniz Gonçalves Sousa, Samara Nonato de 2022-07-21T12:36:16Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/32073Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:48:11.402698Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |

The present study is an exploratory, analytical research, which aimed to evaluate the pattern of use of oral contraceptive medications (OC) by women and specifically the occurrence of adverse reactions arising from the use of these medications, by sharing a questionnaire in social media, with questions about adherence to contraceptive therapy and how the use of such medications by women who agreed to participate in the research. It was observed that, of a total of 233 women who agreed to participate in the research, 65.4% had been using contraceptives for a period between 5 and 10 years. It was also possible to observe that 63.2% of them had headache as the predominant adverse reaction (P<0.05, ANOVA), but the occurrence of serious adverse reactions such as thrombosis (4.2%) was also observed, and that 87.9% of these acquired such drugs without asking for a medical prescription at the time of purchase.
