This study aims to determine the factors associated with self-medication practices in patients hospitalized in the infectious diseases service of a tertiary care institution through a quantitative, descriptive, analytical, and cross-sectional study that included patients over 18 years of age hospitalized and under the management of the infectious diseases service. A validated instrument was used to survey 168 patients in this initial phase, and the analysis was performed using SPSS statistical software. It was found that self-medication was frequent (59.5%), mainly with acetaminophen and medicinal plants, primarily motivated by headaches and body aches. There was evidence of a low reading habit of drug information and a significant association between the use of medicinal plants and antibiotics with the age group.
