Pharmacists warn of the bad habits related to the way the drugs are ingested. Break, crush or swallow the medicine with certain foods can increase or reduce its effects.

"90% of people who seek medical leave with a prescription. But the pharmacy must be linked to health services, otherwise the patient takes the medicine and take the gondola as you want. So there are a number of poisoning and inactivity of the drug: the lack of guidance, "says Rachel Rizzi, president of CRF-SP (Regional Council of Pharmacy of the State of Sao Paulo).

A major error is crush tablets or open the contents of capsules to facilitate swallowing. "It's a problem and is serious. A capsule may be designed not to degrade in the stomach. If you take the content of the membrane, it can lose the effect," said Chung Man Chin, the Department of Pharmacognosy and Medicinal Sciences Faculty Medicine of UNESP (Universidade Estadual Paulista) of Araraquara.

Omeprazole, says Chin, is one of the remedies that have the effect reduced with the crushing.
