A drug interaction occurs when the effect of a drug is altered by the administration of another, which can cause adverse reactions, putting the patient's health at risk. The objective of this research was to evaluate and analyze studies of drug interactions in medical prescriptions filled for outpatient patients. The study was basic, descriptive, with a retrospective and cross-sectional directionality. Data were collected from research published over the last 10 years on drug interactions in prescriptions for outpatient patients. The results were analyzed based on severity, type of interaction, type of documentary evidence, and frequency of interaction using a data collection form. Results: The predominant drug interactions by severity were moderate (62.4%). By type of documentary evidence, 'Good' predominated at 50.7%. By type of interaction, pharmacodynamic predominated at 53.6%, and by frequency, the most common was once (46%). Conclusion: It is important that a pharmacist be present in pharmaceutical establishments to detect possible drug interactions.
