    A study was conducted to determine and analyze adherence to prescribed pharmacological treatment for pediatric patients seen in the outpatient clinic of the National Institute of Child Health - San Borja. Lima 2021. It is a deductive study with a quantitative approach and a cross-sectional observational design, with a sample of 385 patients seen in the outpatient clinic of the National Institute of Child Health - San Borja between November 2021 and April 2022. A 13-question questionnaire was conducted, distributed in four dimensions, which measured the socioeconomic factor, treatment-related factor, sociodemographic factor, and medication adherence using the Morisky Green Levine Test. Of the results obtained, 17.14% were adherent to treatment and 82.86% did not present pharmacological adherence; the duration of treatment and female sex were determining factors in relation to adherence. Based on these results, we propose working toward the creation of a pharmaceutical care unit at the National Institute of Child Health in San Borja, to strengthen patient care and pharmacotherapeutic monitoring, thereby improving and contributing to patient adherence.
