dc.description.abstractHealth literacy (HL) is an essential health determinant thatcould encourage the adoption of individual and commu-nity protective behaviours that contribute to public health.This study aims to analyse the associations between HLand medication HL (MHL) in 4015 adolescents from theHealth Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC/WHO).Data were collected from the HBSC/WHO questionnaire.Descriptive statistics, bivariate analysis, and multinomiallogistic regression were performed. 62.4% of participantshave a moderate level of HL and 29.1% have a high levelof HL. The youngest boys, and those who have a low levelof MHL in the different dimensions presented (expirationdate, recycling, side effects, illegal sale and safety), havea low level of HL. The oldest girls have a moderate levelof HL. Also, girls with a high level of MHL, reported a highlevel of HL. MHL, namely, the expiration date, recycling,side effects and safety dimensions in adolescents is signifi-cantly related to and positively associated with HL. The re-sults will enable us to highlight to family professionals andpublic policies the importance of HL and MHL promotionin adolescents.pt_PT
