Resumo
A presente monografia aborda a influência da farmácia na prevenção de
comportamentos de risco na adolescência, através da promoção da saúde. Esta
monografia contempla ainda a importância dos pais na educação para uma vida
saudável.
O principal objetivo desta monografia é avaliar o impacto da farmácia, como
principal cuidado de saúde primário, no combate a hábitos incorretos de alimentação,
atividade física, consumo de álcool e tabaco praticados pela população adolescente.
O papel do farmacêutico revela uma grande importância na evolução do
conceito de farmácia, tal como se tem verificado ao longo dos últimos anos. Esta
evolução teve em vista uma maior proximidade entre a farmácia e a comunidade, sendo
este atualmente, um espaço de primeira linha dedicado à saúde do utente. O contributo
do farmacêutico apresenta especial responsabilidade na indicação e aconselhamento,
bem como na promoção da saúde, uma vez que tem a vantagem de ter uma grande
proximidade com os seus utentes. O desafio ainda se torna mais elevado quando se
refere a crianças e adolescentes, uma vez que há necessidade de atuar e intervir
precocemente, de modo a minimizar riscos associados aos comportamentos
inadequados nesta fase da vida. Existem ainda situações de morbilidade e mortalidade,
sendo necessário sensibilizar crianças e adolescentes para situações de risco, as suas
consequências e prevenção através da promoção da saúde.
A farmácia da atualidade aponta para o desenvolvimento de novas estratégias
que visam melhorar a saúde das crianças através da prevenção de doenças e promoção
de estilos de vida saudáveis.
The present monograph discusses the influence of pharmacy in the prevention of risk behaviors in adolescence, through the promotion of health. This monograph also considers the importance of parents in education for a healthy life. The main objective of this monograph is to evaluate the impact of pharmacy, as the main primary health care, in combating incorrect eating habits, physical activity, alcohol and tobacco consumption practiced by the adolescent population. The role of the pharmacist reveals great importance in the evolution of the concept of pharmacy, as it has been verified in recent years. This evolution had as its aim a greater proximity between the pharmacy and the community, which is currently the first point of help of patients. The contribution of the pharmacist presents special responsibility in the indication and advice, as well as in the promotion of health, since it has the advantage of being very close to its users. The challenge is evermore important when it comes to children and teenagers, since there is a need to act and intervene early, in order to minimize the risks associated with inappropriate behavior in this phase of life. There are also situations of morbidity and mortality, and it is necessary to sensitize children and adolescents to situations of risk, their consequences and prevention through health promotion. Today's pharmacy aims to develop new strategies targeted at improving the health of children by preventing diseases and promoting healthy lifestyles.
