_______________________________________________________ RESUMOO setor magistral teve um crescimento expansivo nos últimos anos no Brasil. O menor preço do medicamento manipulado é o fator que mais contribuiu para esse crescimento. A verificação da qualidade dos medicamentos manipulados é de suma importância, e tem como finalidade, avaliar a eficácia do sistema de qualidade e detectar possíveis não conformidades que podem acarretar riscos para a saúde do paciente. Neste trabalho foram analisadas amostras de fluoxetina comercializadas em três farmácias de Montes Claros-MG. Para cada farmácia foram adquiridos três lotes do medicamento e realizados os testes de peso médio, desintegração, dissolução e determinação de teor. As farmácias A e B foram aprovadas em todos os testes, já a farmácia C teve reprovação do lote 2 e 3 para o teste de determinação de teor. Em conclusão, os resultados confirmam a necessidade de ações mais eficientes pelas autoridades do sistema público de saúde para possibilitar a garantia da qualidade dos medicamentos manipulados.
