Resumo

Treatment adherence is not only related to medication prescription follow-up, it in volves several factors, such as the health system, the patient and the disease itself. Polypharmacological treatment has a great complexity that is increased in patients undergoing psychiatric treatment, in which the use of various drugs are part of the therapy. Objective: To identify the degree of adherence and non-adherence to therapy in these patients, through the methodology of the proportion of days covered. Methods: A cross-sectional and descriptive study was conducted at the Centro de Atenção Psicossocial (CAPS) Novo Mundo in the metropolitan region of Goiânia. The data were obtained from the universal system of the city of Goiânia. The methodology was divided into three stages: (i) data collection; (ii) calculation of the proportion of days covered; (iii) classification of the therapeutic complexity index. Data were collected between May and October to calculate the proportion of days covered. Results: Among 28 selected patients, 18 were female and 10 male, with a mean age of 49 years and a low level of education. Regarding the proportion of days covered, about 60% were adherent, with low therapeutic complexity. Discussion: Female patients were more prevalent in the study, since the prevalence of Mental Disorders in this population is higher. Sociodemographic characteristics may directly affect the degree of adherence. High therapeutic complexity is related to nonadherence to pharmacological treatment. Conclusion: Through the study, it was possible to identify the degree of primary adherence in psychiatric patients and to describe the sociodemographic profile of this population.
