Objective: The objective was to describe epidemiological data on exogenous intoxication, reported by the municipality of Crateús, Ceará, Brazil, from 2014 to 2023. Methods: This is a cross-sectional and descriptive epidemiological study, conducted in September 2024, based on notifications of exogenous intoxications reported in Crateús. Data collection was carried out through Tabnet from the Department of Informatics of the Unified Health System (DATASUS). Results: A total of 600 cases of exogenous intoxication were reported by the municipality of Crateús, with a predominance of females (70%) and mixed race/skin color individuals (67.3%). Medications were the main toxic agent (71.3%), and suicide attempts were the main circumstance (71.8%). The incidence of cases peaked in 2022, with 125.6 cases per 100,000 inhabitants. Final considerations: DATASUS data are essential for situational diagnosis and the creation of public health measures, promoting well-being and guiding decision-making by managers.
