A descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out, aimed at identifying the adverse reactions to drugs in "Saturnino Lora Torres" Teaching Clinical Surgical Provincial Hospital in Santiago de Cuba, during 2014. One hundred and seven adverse effects were notified, 73 (68.2%) by the Licentiates in Nursing and 29 (27.1%) by the doctors; among them chills, anxiety and cough highlighted. The female sex and the concomitant diseases conditioned the emergence of these reactions. The antibacterial and antihypertensive prevailed as the main pharmacological groups, the growth factor and captopril as the drugs with higher incidence and arnica as homeopathic remedy

Keywords : adverse reaction; drug; pharmacosurveillance; secondary health care.
