Neste estudo buscou-se caracterizar o uso de medicamentos em uma Unidade de Saude da Familia em Salvador-Bahia. Foi realizado um estudo descritivo de corte transversal mediante uma analise retrospectiva das prescricoes dos meses de agosto e setembro de 2010. Utilizou-se como referencial os indicadores de uso de medicamentos preconizados pela Organizacao Mundial da Saude (OMS). Foram analisadas 1230 receitas com 2408 medicamentos prescritos. Evidenciou-se que o maior percentual dos pacientes atendidos foi do sexo feminino (77%). As classes de medicamentos mais frequentes foram: anti-hipertensivos (28%), antimicrobianos topicos (12%) e contraceptivos (11%). O medicamento mais prescrito foi a hidroclorotiazida presente em 20,2% das receitas.

ABSTRACT Profile analysis of use of medicines in a family health unit, Salvador, Bahia Studies on use of medicines are useful for managers of health systems for comparing the operation between services, and also identifying problems in the functioning of these, proposing measures and assessing the impact of an intervention. This study sought to characterize the use of drugs in a Family Health Unit in Salvador, Bahia. This was a cross-sectional study, conducting a retrospective analysis of prescriptions for the months of August and September of 2010, using as a methodological basis drug use indicators established by WHO. In this study, 1230 revenues were analyzed, being prescribed 2408 drugs in the mentioned period. Of the total patients enrolled, 77% were female. The most common drug classes were: antihypertensives 28%, topical antimicrobial agents 12%, and contraceptives 11%. The most drug prescribed was the hydrochlorothiazide with 20.2% of the revenues. The percentage of drugs prescribed under the generic name was 72% and 11% prescribed under the acronym or abbreviation. About 21% of the prescriptions contained injectable drugs, and 87.9% of these were hormonal contraceptives. The average number of drugs per prescription was 2.0. The indicators presented good rates when compared with those established by WHO, however, some findings suggest the need to establish a continuing education with the prescribers.
