Resumen:
Pharmaceutical care involves a set of actions aimed at the promotion, protection and restoration of health. These actions provide advantages such as safe access to the medicine and its rational use. The aim of this study was to evaluate the selection, distribution and inventory control of medicines adopted in Cuite-PB Hospital. The study is exploratory and descriptive and analytical approach was carried out from October 2009 to November 2010, based on some elements of the pharmaceutical cycle such as inventory management, selection and distribution of medicines in hospital. the analysis of selection showed the possibility of exclusion some items resulting in a decrease of 22% of standardized list in institution. The distribution system adopted does not meet effectively the demand of pharmacy, mainly due to the reduced number of employees. Regarding the inventory management was possible to observe that a reduced amount of few items corresponds to 95% of the budget, so a better control of these items represents greater cost control. It can be concluded that the implementation of the suggestions and evaluation of other components of the cycle of pharmaceutical assistance, can bring benefits to the institution as well as an offer of quality assistance.
