Abstract
Os medicamentos ansiolíticos são a classe de escolha para o tratamento de transtorno de ansiedade, atuam no Sistema Nervoso Central (SNC), na qual ajudam a controlar as emoções e o comportamento do usuário. As plantas medicinais são utilizadas de forma livre, e as pessoas acreditam que elas complementam o tratamento. Para a ansiedade, algumas plantas medicinais são utilizadas de forma indiscriminada pela maioria da população, pois se acredita que por ser natural não irá interferir em um tratamento medicamentoso. Estas plantas podem potencializar medicamentos ansiolíticos, interferindo na eficácia, na prescrição médica e na adesão dos pacientes ao tratamento. O presente estudo teve como objetivo, entrevistar usuários do município de Lajeado/RS que fazem uso de medicamentos ansiolíticos, analisando a utilização destes medicamentos com o uso concomitante de plantas medicinais. Verificou-se a utilização de medicamentos ansiolíticos com plantas medicinais como: Melissa officinalis L., Passiflora incarnata L. e Cymbopogon citratus (DC.) Stapf, as quais potencializam seu efeito. Verificou-se que a cultura popular na utilização de plantas medicinais é ainda muito presente e que corrobora no uso indiscriminado destas. Percebe-se a importância da ação do farmacêutico junto a população, para esclarecer dúvidas e para orientar sobre o uso correto das plantas medicinais, visando a proteção da saúde do usuário.
