“…This finding, although not ideal since legal recommendations are for 100% generic names in prescriptions within the primary health care facilities, is higher than the level observed in other Brazilian studies (Santos, Nitrini, 2004;Naves, Silver, 2005;Girotto, Silva, 2006), except those conducted by the Pan American Health Organization/World Health Organization (PAHO/WHO) (Brasil, 2005) and by Farias et al (2007). The proportion of antibiotics per prescription in the Taquari Valley (11.9%) was lower than the WHO limit rate and lower than results found in other studies (Santos, Nitrini, 2004;Brazil, 2005;Naves, Silver, 2005;Girotto, Silva, 2006;Farias et al, 2007), with the exception of research performed in Blumenau, Santa Catarina, by Colombo et al (2004). In their study, the percentage corresponded to 12.5%, a similar score to that observed in the Taquari Valley.…”

“…tion (WHO). In the Taquari Valley, the mean number of prescribed drugs (2.41) was higher than that recommended by the WHO and the findings of other studies (Colombo et al, 2004;Santos, Nitrini, 2004;Brasil, 2005;Naves, Silver, 2005;Girotto, Silva, 2006;Farias et al, 2007).

Em estudos anteriores, os percentuais variaram de 58,4% a 92,7% 11,12,13,14,15,16,17 . O percentual verificado também é inferior aos observados em países da África, que variaram entre 88% e 92,3% 18,19,20,21 e Ásia, com 85% a 99,7% 18,22,23,24 .…”

“…The use of agents of the renin-angiotensin system came in second. This use in both groups probably occurs due to the population's greater longevity and the group of diseases it leads to, 23 because such medicines play a role in fi ghting diseases that are typical in the elderly. The use of analgesics is also associated with age, once the threshold of pain changes with age, requiring changes in the therapy with analgesics.…”
