    This research aimed to determine the characteristics of prescriptions and the rational use of medications for respiratory infections in patients treated at the Juan Pablo II Health Center. Materials and methods: The study was descriptive, observational, cross-sectional, retrospective, and quantitative. Prescriptions filled at the pharmacy service for patients diagnosed with respiratory infections in 2017 were verified. The population consisted of 1,360 medical prescriptions, from which a sample of 315 was selected. Results: The indicators showed the following: dose registration was 81.3%; frequency registration was 74.3%; duration of treatment registration was 29.5%; and the route of administration registration was 71.4%. 46.3% of the prescriptions were legible, while 53.7% were illegible. Prescriptions that jointly met all five aspects considered in the research had a 4.1% compliance rate. The highest number of medications prescribed per prescription was two medications (38.7%), followed by three medications (34.6%). Regarding antibiotics prescribed for respiratory infections, 86.3% (272) had one antibiotic, and 4.8% (15) had two. A 100% compliance rate was found for medications included in the National Essential Medicines List (PNUME) and for prescribing medications by their International Nonproprietary Name (INN). Conclusion: It was determined that there are deficiencies in prescription characteristics related to indications, legibility, and non-compliance with the Manual of Good Prescribing Practices and the study's Prescription Characteristics Protocol. However, it was found that the rational use of medications complied with the established standards at a 100% rate.
