| description |
Emerging drugs are considered those used for their intended pharmaceutical use as well as medicinal plants or substances with psychoactive effects. Their consumption occurs mainly in adolescents and young people, who seek and access them essentially via the Internet. The objective of this work was to characterize the student population of a public university that consumes them; an analytical cross-sectional study was carried out in which the database derived from the study "Perception, risk and drug use in university students (Percibete2)" Among the main findings were the use of plants and fungi, as well as various drugs for medical use among university students, predominantly the use of the former in women and medications in men (p = 0.042); The presence of anxiety symptoms was dominant among pharmaceuticals users, there were no significant differences in academic performance, family functioning, self-esteem and symptoms of depression. The consumption of emerging drugs in students is present in the public university studied; calling attention to the higher consumption of non-prescription medical drugs in men in the area of health sciences; as well as the higher probability of consumption of plants and fungi in women and the students of the Economic-Administrative area. A situation that highlights the imperative need to perform specific interventions in vulnerable populations with an emphasis on mental health disorders, to avoid increasing the probability of consumption. |

Se consideran drogas emergentes todos aquellos fármacos que se utilizan con diferentes propósitos para el que fueron creados, asimismo el consumo de plantas medicinales o de sustancias con efectos psicoactivos. Su consumo se presenta principalmente en adolescentes y jóvenes, quienes las buscan y acceden a ellas esencialmente vía Internet. El objetivo de este trabajo fue caracterizar a la población estudiantil de una universidad pública que las consume, se realizó un estudio transversal analítico en el que se utilizó la base de datos derivada del estudio “Percepción, riesgo y consumo de drogas en estudiantes universitarios (Percibete2)”. Entre los principales hallazgos se identificaron la utilización de plantas y hongos, así como diversas drogas de uso médico entre los universitarios, predominando el uso de los primeros en las mujeres y de medicamentos en los hombres (p=0.042); la presencia de síntomas de ansiedad fue mayor entre los consumidores de fármacos, no se presentaron diferencias significativas en cuanto al rendimiento académico, el funcionamiento familiar, autoestima y síntomas de depresión. En la universidad pública estudiada está presente el consumo de drogas emergentes en los estudiantes; llama la atención el mayor consumo de drogas médicas sin prescripción en los hombres del área de ciencias de la salud; así como la mayor probabilidad de consumo de plantas y hongos en mujeres y en los estudiantes del área Económico-Administrativa. Situación que pone de manifiesto la necesidad imperativa de realizar intervenciones específicas en poblaciones vulnerables con énfasis en trastornos de salud mental, para evitar se aumente la probabilidad de consumo. Consideram-se como sendo drogas emergentes todos aqueles fármacos que são utilizados para diferentes fins para os quais foram criados, bem como o consumo de plantas medicinais ou substâncias com efeitos psicoativos. O seu consumo ocorre principalmente em adolescentes e jovens, que as procuram e acessam essencialmente através da Internet. O objetivo deste trabalho foi caracterizar a população de estudantes de uma universidade pública que as consome, sendo focado em um estudo transversal analítico no qual foi utilizada a base de dados derivada do estudo “Percepção, risco e consumo de drogas em estudantes universitários (Percibete2) " Entre os principais achados estiveram o uso de plantas e fungos, além de diversos medicamentos de uso médico entre os universitários, predominando o uso dos primeiros em mulheres e de medicamentos em homens (p = 0.042); a presença de sintomas de ansiedade foi maior entre os usuários de fármacos, não houve diferenças significativas em termos de desempenho escolar, funcionamento familiar, autoestima e sintomas de depressão. Na universidade pública estudada, o consumo de drogas emergentes é presente nos alunos; chama a atenção o maior consumo de medicamentos sem receita por homens na área das ciências da saúde; bem como a maior probabilidade de consumo de plantas e fungos em mulheres e em alunos da área Econômico-Administrativa. A dita situação evidencia a necessidade imperiosa de realização de intervenções específicas nas populações vulneráveis com ênfase nos transtornos mentais, para evitar o aumento da probabilidade de consumo.
