Summary: Objective: to know the knowledge and practices of adult men enrolled in a Family Health Strategy, about the use of medicinal plants. Methodology: Qualitative, descriptive and exploratory research. Adult men who used medicinal plants regularly participated. Data collection through semi-structured interview and non-participant observation and interpretation by analysis of thematic content. Results: The family members between generations transmit the popular knowledge about medicinal plants and the use of plants is related to the relief of specific symptoms. The practice of handling and preparation of medicinal plants differs from scientific recommendations regarding dosage and interaction with other substances. Conclusion: the health professionals included in the Family Health Strategy need to recognize this practice as present in the daily life of adult men and carry out multidisciplinary educational actions based on scientific knowledge to contribute to the use of medicinal plants in a safe way.

Metodologia: pesquisa qualitativa, descritiva, exploratória. Participaram homens adultos que utilizavam plantas medicinais de forma habitual. Coleta dos dados por meio de entrevista semiestruturada e observação não participante e interpretação por análise de conteúdo temática. Resultados: O saber popular sobre as plantas medicinais é transmitido na família entre gerações e o uso das plantas está relacionado ao alívio de sintomas específicos. A prática do manejo e preparo das plantas medicinais diverge das recomendações científicas em relação a dosagem e interação com outras substâncias. Conclusão: os profissionais de saúde inseridos na Estratégia de Saúde da Família necessitam reconhecer esta prática como presente no cotidiano de homens adultos e realizar ações educativas multidisciplinares pautadas no conhecimento científico para dessa forma contribuir com a utilização das plantas medicinais de forma segura. Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2017-08-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/revistasaude/article/view/2554410.5902/2236583425544Saúde (Santa Maria); Revista Saúde (Santa Maria), Vol.43, n.2, maio-ago. 2017; 45-54Saúde (Santa Maria); Revista Saúde (Santa Maria), Vol.43, n.2, maio-ago. 2017; 45-542236-58340103-4499reponame:Saúde (Santa Maria)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)instacron:UFSMporhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/revistasaude/article/view/25544/pdfCopyright (c) 2017 Saúde (Santa Maria)info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Silvana de OliveiraGomes, Talita KifferMachado, Letícia MartinsPieszak, Greice MachadoRodrigues, Sandra Ost2020-05-14T20:44:11Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/25544Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/revistasaudePUBhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/revistasaude/oairevistasaude.ufsm@gmail.com || amanda.revsaude@gmail.com || beatriz.revsaude@gmail.com2236-58342236-5834opendoar:2020-05-14T20:44:11Saúde (Santa Maria) - Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)false
