Popis: Educational activities, developed with different teaching materials, were directed to issues related to the use of medicines, in order to teach and educate about their rational use in the project “Building a Healthier Community”. A workshop on “Rational Use of Medicines” was implemented with elementary (4th to 6th grade) and secondary (1st to 6th year) school students of an education center in Argentina. The theoretical aspects approached were applied through several games played by the students, such as dominoes, analysis of situations presented in a cartoon and discernment between positive and negative attitudes related to the use of medicines. Students showed great involvement with the activities proposed and a great change in the perception of medicines was seen with more awareness of the importance of proper use of medicines. These activities aimed at helping to change the scenario of irrational use of medicines that currently exists in several areas of our population.
