Caracterización retrospectiva de los indicadores farmacoepidemiológicos en la prescripción medicamentosa en las especies de compañía de Medellín

ABSTRACT: A descriptive and retrospective study was made in three veterinarian consultants of Medellín City (Col). The main objective was to identify the factors that mediates in the therapeutic effect of the pets comparing between the pharmacoepidemiologic indicators and clinic facts registered. In the analysis was used 1317 clinic records collected during the first semester of 1999. The animal specie most found was canine(96,3%) and the feline was found in 3,72% of the all records (rate 26:1). The canine sex distribution was greater in male(54;7%) than female (45,3%).The canine breed more attendant was poodle (28,2%). The interval age group more registered was the 1-5 years old (45,9%). It found that the skin and annexes was the system more reported (25,3%) and the disease most common was the dermatitis(10.7%); the digestive system was the second organic system more affected and in this system the gastroenteritis was the main diagnosis. The greater drug prescription was the antimicrobials agents (48%). The pharmacologic groups more prescribed were first generation cephalosporins and penicillins. In conclusion, is difficult to establish any pharmacoepidemiologic indicators in the small animal practice. The reason to explain this problem is the inconsistency in the manner to report in the clinic records: semiologic facts, diagnosis, laboratory aids, drugs prescriptions, control and pursuit of the cases.
