	<meta name="DC.Description" xml:lang="en" content=" Psychotropic drugs are frequently consumed by the population; their irrational use  threatens the quality of life of patients who take them regularly without medical supervision. The  objective of this research is to characterize the consumption of psychotropic drugs in a Basic  Work Group from the health area of  &quot; Martha Abreu de Estevez &quot;  University Teaching  Polyclinic. These drugs are often taken for self-medication, prescribed for complacency, and  although they have a precise medical indication, sometimes the established norms for their correct  use are not met. Ages between 50 and 64 years and female gender predominated among  the epidemiological variables. Lower blood pressure and alleviate family and work problems  were the main causes of consumption. We concluded that there was a high rate of  self-medicated use of psychotropic drugs; the interviewees had access to them through unconventional  ways, not related to the health system.  "/>

El objetivo de esta investigación es caracterizar el consumo de psicofármacos en un Grupo Básico de Trabajo en el área de salud del Policlínico Docente Universitario Martha Abreu de Estévez. Frecuentemente, se toman por automedicación, son prescriptos por complacencia y aunque tengan una indicación médica precisa, en ocasiones no se cumplen las normas establecidas para su uso correcto. Entre las variables epidemiológicas predominaron: las edades entre 50 y 64 años y el sexo femenino. Las principales causas del consumo fueron: para disminuir la tensión arterial y aliviar problemas familiares y laborales. Se concluyó que existió un alto índice de consumo de psicofármacos de manera automedicada; los entrevistados accedieron a estos a través de vías no convencionales, no relacionadas con el sistema de salud."/>

		<h4>Resumen</h4>

		<div>Los psicofármacos son frecuentemente consumidos por la población; su uso irracional atenta contra la calidad de vida de los pacientes que los toman regularmente sin supervisión médica. El objetivo de esta investigación es caracterizar el consumo de psicofármacos en un Grupo Básico de Trabajo en el área de salud del Policlínico Docente Universitario Martha Abreu de Estévez. Frecuentemente, se toman por automedicación, son prescriptos por complacencia y aunque tengan una indicación médica precisa, en ocasiones no se cumplen las normas establecidas para su uso correcto. Entre las variables epidemiológicas predominaron: las edades entre 50 y 64 años y el sexo femenino. Las principales causas del consumo fueron: para disminuir la tensión arterial y aliviar problemas familiares y laborales. Se concluyó que existió un alto índice de consumo de psicofármacos de manera automedicada; los entrevistados accedieron a estos a través de vías no convencionales, no relacionadas con el sistema de salud.</div>
