Descrição
Resumo:The number of patients with some type of disorder or diagnosed mental illness has been growing exponentially and with this has aroused increasing interest, either among health professionals and researchers, or among the most diverse segments of society. Due to the COVID 19 pandemic and social isolation, this may have influenced mental health and consequently the consumption of psychotropic drugs. The present study aims to investigate whether there was a change in consumption considering the two previous years and the two years of the COVID 19 pandemic, in addition to analyzing the influence of the COVID 19 pandemic on the profile of use of psychotropic drugs in the city of Caicó, describing the profile of users who use psychotropic drugs, in addition to describing the quantitative and qualitative profile of these drugs. This is a descriptive, cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach, carried out in health units that dispense psychotropic drugs in the city of Caicó/RN, inthe period from 2018 to 2021. For data analysis, reports present in the HORUS system, a tool of the Ministry of Health, were used, which contains all the logistics data for the movement of medicines and their correlates in the various public health establishments. With the data present in these reports, six categories were identified that make up the present profile of dispensing psychotropic drugs in Caicó, namely: Dispensing by number of people served, Dispensing by sex of people served, Dispensing by therapeutic class, Dispensing by therapeutic classes in months per year, Dispensing of drugs by therapeutic class, Financial investment by therapeutic classes dispensed. With these data, it was possible to select users who fit the profile of the study and apply a questionnaire on their medical records, to form a databasein addition to graphs, charts and tables. With the results obtained and tabulated using a SPSS v. 20 using descriptive analysis: frequency and cross-reference table. With the compilation of the data, the various impacts caused by the COVID 19 pandemic were observed, in all the analysis of the study, causing a reduction in the consumption and dispensing of psychotropics, also reducing the power of investmentin the acquisition of these drugs. The study concluded that with the decrease in the consumption of psychotropic drugs in the pandemic years, some users were left without access to the drug, or medical assistance or even financial resources to purchase these drugs, and therefore their health condition may have worsened. Therefore, it is relevant to carry out studies at the local level to identify the reality regarding the verification of the rational use of these drugs, prevalence of use in the population, especially in Primary Health Care, for the elaboration of coping strategies in the perspective of promoting professional qualification and , ultimately, ensure patient safety and quality of health care. In view of the results obtained, viable strategies and recommendations were discussed for their implementation in Primary Health Care in order to promote the rational use of psychotropic drugs, correlating to the appropriate theoretical framework.
