It was found asssociation between the use of the medicament and: female sex (p=0.025); be married or have a companion (p=0.049); and over sixty years old (p=0.000). The most used medicament group by oncologic patients in treatment with continuous medicine was the cardiovascular system (69.56%). It was verified the association between using continuous medicine and self-reporting of: hypertension (p=0.000); diabetes mellitus (p=0.013); acute myocardial infarction (p=0.045); depression (p=0.001) and alcoholic drinks (p=0.000).
