    The return of medications and medical devices is an indicator of the Unit Dose Drug Dispensing System (UDDDS). This system is a safe, effective method for the user that achieves maximum efficiency, and the returns generate savings. Therefore, it is important for the Pharmacist, in coordination with licensed nurses, to control products not administered to the patient for various reasons. Thus, the OBJECTIVE of this research was to evaluate the economic benefit in the return of medications and medical devices within the UDDDS of the HNHU. Method: The research used the deductive method, a quantitative approach, an applied type, and an observational, cross-sectional, non-experimental design conducted from January to December 2021. The sample consisted of 465 return forms for medications and medical devices, selected via simple random probabilistic sampling. RESULTS: The value was determined by 8,614 (91.55%) medications and 1,809 (8.45%) medical devices returned through the UDDDS. The total number of units across all dimensions was 10,423 units, with a total value of S/ 44,347.96. CONCLUSIONS: During the study period, an economic benefit was demonstrated for the Institution and the patient, corresponding to 7.75% of the total returns of medications and medical devices according to the UDDDS.
