Automedicación en el campo odontológico en una población adulta

Abstract

RESUMEN Introducción: La práctica de la automedicación se considera una amenaza potencial en el campo de la salud en general y particularmente en el ámbito odontológico, ya que las personas que lo realizan desconocen de las reacciones adversas. El objetivo del estudio fue determinar el índice de automedicación odontológica en adultos de la ciudad de Guayaquil, Ecuador 2021. Materiales y métodos: Estudio descriptivo de corte transversal, cuyo instrumento aplicado fue una encuesta virtual previamente validada. Se manejó una muestra de 402 personas, las cuales cumplieron los criterios de inclusión. Resultados: La prevalencia de automedicación encontrada fue de 88, 31% (n=355), con respecto a la edad existió significancia estadística (p<0.000), las personas que presentaron mayor frecuencia de automedicación fueron de 18 a 44 años (91%; n=289). Los fármacos de mayor demanda fueron los antiinflamatorios (31%; n=126), siendo los comprimidos los más habituales (73,4%; n=295). Conclusión: La prevalencia de automedicación odontológica en la ciudad de Guayaquil es alta, siendo los adultos jóvenes la población más expuesta a dicha práctica, estos datos son alarmantes.
