Isso é primordial em um cenário na qual os medicamentos são as alternativas em saúde mais utilizadas para a prevenção, recuperação e manutenção da saúde, mas que, quando utilizados de forma inadequada, são uma das principais causas de morbidade, mortalidade e de prejuízos econômicos e sociais [7][8][9][10][11][12] .…”
