A promoção do uso racional de antibióticos pode ser realizada de forma a conscientizar profissionais de saúde e usuários através de ações educativas. Objetivo: Relatar a experiência de construção de um instrumento de educação em saúde sobre o uso racional de antibióticos com escolares do ensino fundamental. Métodos: As atividades iniciaram-se pela definição dos objetivos, seleção da melhor estratégia e programação das atividades com as assistentes pedagógicas das escolas. Após definir a estratégia a ser adotada como história em quadrinhos, trabalhou-se com as crianças nas etapas de contextualização, construção da seqüência da história e sua ilustração. Resultados: Os objetivos previstos para a história foram alcançados, com a mesma retratando aspectos previstos no conceito de uso racional de medicamentos da Organização Mundial de Saúde. Obtiveram-se seis histórias e foi selecionada aquela que mais se adequou aos objetivos iniciais. Conclusão: A experiência demonstra uma maneira de desenvolver ações de educação em saúde em interação com a comunidade, utilizando oficinas lúdicas. Além disso, permitiu identificar limitações e potencialidades para a utilização de estratégias de educação em saúde, que podem ser realizadas com crianças da mesma faixa etária, sobre diferentes temas.
