Zusammenfassung: | Objective: To analyse the medications used by breastfeeding women
treated in the public health network, and correlated actions. Methods:
Cross-sectional, quantitative and descriptive study carried out with
100 breastfeeding women, recruited through non- probabilistic
convenience sampling, at the Municipal Hospital of Duque de Caxias, RJ,
in 2012. A questionnaire was applied containing the following
variables: prescribed medications, unwanted effects in nursing infants,
and professionals involved in guidance on the education. The data was
analysed through descriptive statistics, based on absolute and relative
frequencies. Results: It was found that 46% (n=46) of the breastfeeding
women were aged 21 to 30 years, 54% (n=54) were primiparae, 52% (n=52)
had complete fundamental level, and 72% (n=72) received prenatal care.
It was verified that 78% (n=78) of the sample were receiving some type
of medicine and, among these, a significant percentage of nonsteroidal
analgesic/anti-inflammatory medication, with 61.54% (n=48) of the
breastfeeding women. All the prescribed medicines were in the category
of compatible use with breastfeeding. The incidence of some unwanted
symptoms was evidenced in 19.2% (n=15) of the breastfeeding women.
Among the women undergoing medication therapy, 76.92% (n=60) received
guidance during treatment, 55% (n=33) by doctors and 45% (n=27) by
nurses. In this research, 100% of the breastfeeding women were
satisfied with the acquired knowledge. Conclusion: It was noted a high
percentage of breastfeeding women in the sample taking medicines, all
compatible with breastfeeding. It stands out the limited engagement of
the multidisciplinary team in the orientations.
