Resumen

It is a study of qualitative case based in the presuppositions of the Comprehensive Sociology,with the objective of understand adherence the therapeutical medication in the user'sperspective with mental upset and caretaker. The scenery of the research was a referencecenter in mental health (CERSAM) and three basic units of health of the municipal district ofBelo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. The subject of the research were 13 patient with schizophreniadiagnosis and 2 family that live together with schizophrenic. The data were collected throughsemi-structured interviews, submitted to the content analysis and organized in three thematiccategories involving aspects that influence in the adhesion to the treatment: 1) implications ofthe disease, family and work; 2) experience of the bearer of mental upset as for the the use ofthe medication; 3) path of service of the bearer of mental upset. The first appeared for certainknowledge in relation to schizophrenia, with restrictions in the acceptance, attributing othersenses to the disease, as the conception of the "nervous". We noticed the caretaker is alsovulnerable to the be taken ill. The work is seen as aiding in the treatment. The second, itapproached the no-adherence to the treatment, for the perception of the adverse effects of themedicines; the faith that he is doing badly; the improvement of the symptoms; the selfmedication;the use of drugs psicoativas and the search of alternative therapies. All recognizethe need of the therapeutical medication, that appears as supporting, for PTM, that revealshis/her self-control as decisive of the success or not of his/her treatment. The therapeuticalmedication is configured, therefore as a "road of two-way", because it is imposed aspossibility to feel "normal" or outbreak. Reports of the path of internments appeared at thepsychiatric hospitals and, later the experience in the substitutive services. The access to themedicines in the public net of health, in SUS-BH was also pointed as an improvement factorin the service, so much for the regular provisioning as for the attention released by theprofessionals of the pharmacies of the units of health.
