Objective: To characterize the profile, occurrence and duration of DRPs of the main antiemetics used in hospitalized high-risk pregnant women. Methods: This study was approved by the Institutional Research Ethics Committee with the consent of all participants. Prospective observational cohort study involving 547 high-risk pregnant women, with a mean age of 30.4 ± 6.6 years, hospitalized in a teaching maternity hospital and evaluated between August 2019 and August 2021. Data collection was performed daily through prescription analysis, active research in medical records, pharmaceutical anamnesis and classification of DRPs. For statistical analysis of the data, the program Stata version 13, Pearson's chi-square and Student's t-test (p<0.05) were used. Results: Among the 547 participants, 345 (63.1%) used antiemetics. The most prescribed were ondansetron (88.5%) and metoclopramide (9.0%), both injectable. Both drugs presented DRP of therapeutic ineffectiveness, being higher with metoclopramide (13.5%) compared to ondansetron (4.8%). As for the duration of MRP, ondansetron and metoclopramide required 4.7 and 2.4 days, respectively. Conclusion: The use of antiemetics by hospitalized pregnant women is high, especially ondansetron. DRPs of ineffectiveness and duration were found. Compared to metoclopramide, ondansetron is more effective, although it takes longer to reverse emesis.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/farmacovigilânciasegurança do pacientegestação de alto riscoondansetronametoclopramidapatient safetypharmacovigilancehigh-risk pregnancyondansetronmetoclopramidebachelorThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS DA SAUDE::FARMACIA
