Resumen

Objetivo: Describir el perfil, los medicamentos asociados, los posibles eventos adversos (EA), el nivel de ansiedad y la adherencia al tratamiento entre usuarios de carbamazepina (CBZ).

Métodos: Estudio transversal, descriptivo y analítico, realizado mediante cuestionario y consulta a datos secundarios en historias clínicas. El estudio fue conducido en el sistema público de salud del municipio de Ijuí.

Resultados: El 45,9% de los participantes utilizaban carbamazepina para algún trastorno del estado de ánimo y el 35,3% para epilepsia. El 60% de la población reportó eventos adversos y el 20% creía que estos estaban asociados al uso de carbamazepina. Somnolencia (40%) y mareo (35,3%) fueron los eventos adversos más frecuentes. El 51,8% de los participantes fueron considerados polimedicados. Solo el 3,5% de los encuestados fueron considerados totalmente adherentes al tratamiento.

Conclusión: Fue posible identificar el perfil de los usuarios de carbamazepina, contribuyendo al conocimiento sobre el tema, dado que hay pocos estudios sobre esta población en la literatura.
