https://doi.org/10.18378/rebes.v13i4.10295Resumo
O uso de plantas medicinais é atualmente bastante difundido, sendo popular como uma forma de medicina complementar e alternativa em países mais desenvolvidos, enquanto os fitoterápicos são drogas sintéticas, atuam tanto no organismo humano quanto no animal devido aos produtos químicos que contêm, responsáveis pelas atividades. Apesar dos inúmeros benefícios da aplicação da fitoterapia na medicina complementar de muitos países, ainda é muito debatido sobre os benefícios versus eventos adversos associados às aplicações de fitoterapia, e estima-se que muito poucos eventos indesejados ocorridos tenham sido realmente relatados. Portanto, nosso objetivo foi investigar os efeitos adversos e benefícios da utilização medicamentos derivados de plantas. farmacológicas. O presente estudo trata-se de uma revisão de escopo, do tipo bibliográfica. Foi utilizado as bases de dados da BVS, que incluía a LILACS, MEDLINE, IBECS, BDENF e CINAHL, Cochrane Library, SciELO, PubMed e Google Acadêmico. Foram selecionados os seguintes descritores: “Phytotherapeutic Drugs” AND “Drug-Related Side Effects and Adverse Reactions” AND “Safety”. A OMS estima que, atualmente, mais de 80% da população mundial depende de modalidades de cura tradicionais e de ervas para cuidados primários de saúde e bem-estar. Atualmente, existem milhares de medicamentos fitoterápicos com inúmeros benefícios, como por exemplo os produtos vegetais sintéticos e naturais com propriedades antioxidantes estão sendo explorados como tratamentos potenciais para doenças neurodegenerativas. Portanto, é preciso ter cautela com sua utilização pois ainda existem inúmeras questões associadas à segurança, incluindo qualidade do produto, práticas inadequadas, interações, contaminantes e toxicidades.
