RESUMO
As doenças crônicas não transmissíveis (DCNT's) são responsáveis por cerca de 74% da mortalidade global. Nesse contexto, o acompanhamento farmacoterapêutico surge como uma importante ferramenta para garantir uma farmacoterapia racional em prol da melhoria da qualidade de vida do paciente. Levando isso em consideração, este estudo tem como objetivo avaliar o impacto do acompanhamento farmacêutico na qualidade de vida de um paciente idoso com tratamento irracional da hipertensão arterial sistêmica (HAS), diabetes mellitus e outros sintomas da síndrome metabólica. Paciente M.M.D., masculino, 67 anos, hiperglicêmico, dislipidêmico e que se automedicava para hipertensão sem diagnóstico médico com uma série de medicamentos potencialmente inapropriados (PIM's). Após as intervenções farmacêuticas apresentou melhora nos quadros e maior adesão à terapia medicamentosa atrelada a melhores hábitos de vida. Dessa forma, o impacto positivo das intervenções durante o acompanhamento farmacêutico reforça a importância do profissional na atenção básica e na promoção da saúde.
Chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) account for about 74% of global mortality. In this context, pharmacotherapeutic follow-up appears to be an important tool for ensuring rational pharmacotherapy in favor of improving the patient's quality of life. Taking this into consideration, this study aims to evaluate the impact of pharmaceutical follow-up on the quality of life of an elderly patient with irrational treatment of systemic arterial hypertension (SAH), diabetes mellitus and other symptoms of metabolic syndrome. M.M.D. patient, male, 67 years old, hyperglycemic, dyslipidemic and self-medicating for hypertension without medical diagnosis with a series of potentially inappropriate medications (PIM's). After the pharmaceutical interventions showed an improvement in the conditions and greater adherence to drug therapy coupled to better habits of life. Thus, the positive impact of interventions during pharmaceutical follow-up reinforces the importance of the professional in basic care and health promotion.

RESUMO
This report describes a case of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and chlorhexidine (CHX) extrusion through the apical foramen, causing acute pain, swelling and mucosal fenestration. A 62-year-old woman was referred for endodontic treatment in the first left maxillary premolar with a diagnosis of necrotic pulp. After the root canal irrigation with 2.5% NaOCl, the patient felt a burning sensation and pain. Discrete swelling and redness were noted in the patient's face at the end of the session. Antibiotic and corticosteroids were prescribed. In the next appointment, 2% CHX was used, but another episode of extrusion occurred, with a sudden acute pain and intense swelling within a few minutes after the injection. After 2 weeks, the patient exhibited a left-side facial swelling extending anterior and inferior to the left zygomatic arch and superior to the body of the mandible. Oral antibiotic and anti-inflammatory drugs were administered. After 10 days, the swelling had completely diminished, but a mucosal fenestration and tooth mobility were verified. A cone beam CT was requested and showed a periapical lesion involving both buccal and palatal roots. After a prosthetic evaluation, the tooth extraction was indicated. One week after tooth removal, the mucosa was completely healed.
