ABSTRACT

Itinerários terapêuticos representam os caminhos percorridos por indivíduos na tentativa de solucionar seus problemas de saúde. O objetivo deste trabalho foi o de analisar o percurso de usuários, quando não foram atendidas s as necessidades prescritivas de medicamentos em uma Unidade de Estratégia de Saúde da Família pertencente ao Distrito Partenon/Lomba do Pinheiro, no município de Porto Alegre, RS. Partindo-se de um cadastro de usuários que não tiveram suas necessidades prescritivas totalmente atendidas, efetuou-se a aplicação de um questionário em visita domiciliar. Foram entrevistados usuários com idade entre 53 e 85 anos em visitas domiciliares. Os resultados indicaram que a falta de recursos financeiros, dificuldade física de locomoção, efeitos colaterais, receita médica não legível, falta do medicamento nas Farmácias Distritais do município, receios relacionados a efeitos atribuídos ao medicamento, ?burocracia? dos serviços acessados são os principais fatores que dificultam o cumprimento do itinerário terapêutico. Quando não disponível o medicamento na unidade de saúde, a maioria dos usuários (60%) referiu comprar. Com relação à comunicação da equipe de saúde da família na orientação dos fluxos que o usuário deveria acessar para adquirir o medicamento, 25% dos entrevistados referiram que a equipe não forneceu informações necessárias sobre o local alternativo para a aquisição do medicamento que estava faltando. Considerar a análise do itinerário terapêutico em usuários de medicamentos é pensar em uso racional do medicamento, integralidade, e intersetorialidade.


Therapeutic itineraries represent the paths taken by individuals in the attempt to solve their health problems. The objective of this study was to analyze the paths users took when their prescription drug needs were not met in a Family Health Strategy unit in the Partenon/Lomba do Pinheiro District, city of Porto Alegre, RS. From a database of users whose prescription needs had not been fully met, we administered a questionnaire during home visits. Users between 53 and 85 years of age were interviewed in home visits. The results indicated that the lack of money, physical difficulty in walking, side effects, illegible prescriptions, lack of medicines in the city?s district pharmacies, fears of effects attributed to the drug, and "bureaucracy" of the services accessed are the main factors that hinder completion of the therapeutic itinerary. When a drug was not available at the clinic, most users (60%) reported buying it commercially. With respect to the communication from the family health team regarding suggested sources that the user should access to acquire the drug, 25% of the respondents reported that the team did not provide the necessary information about alternative places to acquire the unavailable drug. Considering the analysis of the therapeutic itinerary of medication users means thinking about rational use of medication, comprehensiveness, and cross-sectorial issues.

ABSTRACT

Therapeutic itineraries represent the trajectories taken by individuals in an attempt to resolve their health problems. The objective of this study was to analyze the trajectory when user prescription medication needs were not met in a Family Health Strategy Unit of the city of Porto Alegre. A database of users whose prescription needs were not fully met and the application of a questionnaire during home visits was performed. Users interviewed were between 53 and 85 years of age. The main problems reported were lack of money, physical difficulty in locomotion, side effects, illegible prescriptions, unavailability of medication in the local pharmacies of the city, fear of effects attributed to the medication, and "bureaucracy." When the medication is not available at the health unit, most users (60%) reported buying it. With respect to the communication of the family health team in the orientation of ways that the user can gain access to the medication, 25% of the respondents reported that the team did not provide necessary information about the alternate location for the acquisition of the medication that was lacking.
