And yet, as it provides the necessary correlation between the use of home remedies and their possible intoxications and side effects, the prospect of moving to pharmacovigilance. The survey etnofarmacêutico, with users of SUS on the island of Cotijuba, takes place through semi-structured interviews, to determine the disease profile of territory, from the data collection, selection of ACS, and systematic preparation of interviewers and data analysis. During the survey the users cited about 170 plant species used for a variety of problems. Of these 10 species stands out as being the most cited, according to the relative frequency of alleged use of each species for a given offense (FRAPS). With this enabled it to build a proposed phytotherapeutic memento of the island. The paper finally discusses the consolidation of PNPMF and PNPIC as well as the need to implement the PEPMF, the importance of the Internal Commission of Pharmacy and Phytotherapy and the possibility of preparing a business plan for the island, on degraded or degradation.Acesso AbertoPlantas medicinaisEtnofarmacologiaAssistência farmacêuticaFarmacovigilânciaIha de Cotijuba - PADissertaçãoCNPQ::CIENCIAS DA SAUDE::FARMACIA::FARMACOGNOSIAUSO E APROVEITAMENTO DOS RECURSOS NATURAISGESTÃO DOS RECURSOS NATURAIS E DESENVOLVIMENTO LOCAL
