This study presents the problem of the overlap between mental health and prison. Throughout time, the hospital, the asylum and the prison have been examined as disciplinary institutions in relation to the expansion of capital. The aim of this work is to analyze the commonalities between the penal system and the field of mental health, focusing on intramural pharmacologization and subjectivation processes. To this end, an analytical design within a qualitative methodological approach was applied. This work was mainly based on conducting in-depth interviews; a critical-reflexive interpretative analysis was carried out and a bibliographic analysis was performed. As a contribution to the study, firstly, we wanted to contribute to the field of mental health in general and pharmacologization in particular, as these are flourishing, open, moving and tension areas. Secondly, the interviewees were listened to in their own active voice, which differs from positioning the voices of the interviewees in ways in which they appear as silenced and passive as objects of research. One of the main findings warns that health conditions in prisons are very sensitive and have alarming characteristics due to the abandonment, helplessness and insecurity that affect the incarcerated. It is concluded that pharmacologization in prisons could be at the service of the intramural government
