Resumo: | Objectives: to describe and quantify the medications most used by residents of this institution, to evaluate the prevalent morbidities, as well as to verify the use of medications potentially inappropriate for the elderly. Methods: This is an epidemiological, descriptive, cross-sectional study, and the data were obtained from the analysis of the medical records of 56 elderly residents. Results: the most used drugs were those with action on the cardiovascular system (85.71%), followed by those acting on the central nervous system (69.64%), thus evidencing that the prevalent diseases are associated with the cardiovascular system followed by those that affect the nervous system. The use of drugs that are classified as inappropriate drugs for the elderly was also demonstrated. Conclusion: this study demonstrated that the nosological profile of the residents of the studied institution corresponds with the profile of the elderly Brazilian asylum, in addition it demonstrated the presence of polypharmacy and that among the drugs used are those classified as potentially inappropriate for the elderly. Thus, results demonstrate a worrying fact, since polypharmacy and the use of inappropriate medications can result in iatrogenesis, thus directly affecting the health of the elderly. |

Métodos: Se trata de un estudio epidemiológico, descriptivo, transversal, y los datos se obtuvieron del análisis de las historias clínicas de 56 ancianos residentes. Resultados: los fármacos más utilizados fueron los que actúan sobre el sistema cardiovascular (85,71%), seguidos de los que actúan sobre el sistema nervioso central (69,64%), evidenciando así que las enfermedades prevalentes están asociadas al sistema cardiovascular seguidas de las que afectan al sistema cardiovascular. sistema nervioso. También se demostró el uso de drogas que se clasifican como drogas inapropiadas para el anciano. Conclusión: este estudio demostró que el perfil nosológico de los residentes de la institución estudiada se corresponde con el perfil del asilo brasileño de ancianos, además, demonstró la presencia de polifarmacia y que entre los medicamentos utilizados están los que son clasificados como potencialmente inapropiados para los ancianos. Así, los resultados demuestran un dato preocupante, ya que la polifarmacia y el uso de fármacos inapropiados pueden resultar en iatrogénesis, afectando así directamente la salud de los ancianos.Objetivos: descrever e quantificar os medicamentos mais utilizados pelos residentes desta Instituição, avaliar as morbidades prevalentes, bem como verificar o uso de medicamentos potencialmente inapropriados para idosos.
