Estudo da incontinência urinária em mulheres climatéricas usuárias e não usuárias de medicação anti-hipertensiva

Among other risks factors for urinary incontinence (UI) is the use of antihypertensive medicines. This paper aimed to value the prevalence of urinary incontinence in menopausal women attending in the Family Health Strategy in Bozano/RS and to assess the risk of these medicine use. It is a descriptive, cross-sectional and analytical study with a comparison group, being group 1 (G1) formed by women who use anti-hypertensive medicines and have a body mass index (BMI) <29,9 kg/m², and group 2 (G2) by women with BMI <29,9 kg/m² and no use of anti-hypertensive medicines. The sampling is composed of 70 women, 21 in G1 group and 49 in G2 group. Data collection was a questionnaire addressing issues related to domestic preconditions for womens health, medicine use and uro-gynecological conditions. As for the prevalence of UI, 52.8% had this complaint (21.4% in G1 and 31.4% in G2). Concerning the pharmacological class of anti-hypertensive medicines, angiotensin-conversing enzyme inhibitors are used by 33.3% of women. As for the risk for UI using anti-hypertensive medicines, the odds ratio showed that women who use this medicine are 3.06 times more likely to be incontinent (p = 0,03). The results suggest that the use of antihypertensive medicines is a predictor of UI in the group of women studied.

Preço dos medicamentos utilizados nas doenças cardiovasculares no Brasil

OBJETIVO: A mortalidade brasileira tem como causa principal as doencas do aparelho circulatorio. Considerando os medicamentos dispensados na Farmacia Popular do Brasil (FPB), analisaram-se os precos daqueles utilizados no tratamento dessas doencas para verificar a contribuicao dos produtos genericos e da FPB. METODOS: O preco de cada medicamento foi obtido no Guia de Precos da Farmacia e na tabela de precos da FPB. O custo de 15 medicamentos disponiveis na FPB foi comparado ao de tres especialidades farmaceuticas genericas, tres similares e a de referencia. RESULTADOS: Os genericos foram os que apresentaram menor preco para dez medicamentos e os similares para quatro. Na FPB encontraram-se os produtos de menor custo. CONCLUSOES: Os medicamentos genericos e os medicamentos da FPB sao de facil acesso a populacao, contribuindo com a continuidade da farmacoterapia na falta de disponibilidade pelo Sistema Unico de Saude e/ou de renda suficiente para aquisicao do medicamento de forma regular. O acesso aos medicamentos deve ser considerado no momento da prescricao, principalmente para aqueles empregados no tratamento de doencas cronicas.
