USO INDISCRIMINADO DO ZOLPIDEM, SUAS CONSEQUENCIAS E CUIDADO FARMACÊUTICO

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the indiscriminate use and consequences of the drug Zolpidem Hemitartrate, especially among the social classes that use it most frequently. The duration of drug use and the occurrence of adverse reactions were analyzed, based on related scientific articles, for the purpose of preparing a Final Course Project (TCC). The research addressed the implications of the indiscriminate use of zolpidem through an exploratory literature review that examines not only the side effects and risks of dependence, but also the social and psychological consequences associated with this behavior. The relevance of this topic is evident, considering the alarming increase in cases of abuse and the urgent need for awareness about the responsible use of medications. Furthermore, this work will seek to substantiate the potential risks of Zolpidem Hemitartrate use and highlight the pharmacist's role in guiding and supporting patients, providing adequate information on the safe use of this drug.
