The dispensing of controlled medicines under retained medical prescription (RMP) is an exclusive responsibility of pharmacists. The proper analysis of prescriptions to verify that they meet legal requirements is an exclusive professional incumbency. The objective was to analyze the RMP dispensed in a commun ty pharmacy for assessing the profile of drug prescribing, characterizing the medications and the population that uses them, and identifying those legal requirements more difficult to fulfill. It was observed that the consumption increases as the age of patients" increases, and women received more prescriptions of these drugs. Only 27% of the RMP complied with the whole requirements.

Palabras clave : drug prescription of special control; psychotropic drugs; community pharmacy.
