OBJECTIVES to analyze nursing actions involving health advocacy in the context of primary health care and the consolidation of this right to health. METHODS this is an integrative literature review with content analysis of the results on health advocacy and its relationship with nursing in the context of primary health care. RESULTS the content analysis of the seven selected studies resulted in two thematic categories: "Right to health - a complex and progressive consolidation movement in Brazil" and "Advocacy in health and nursing". CONCLUSIONS despite the difficulties in defining the concept of health advocacy, nurses, in their practice, act with innovative alternatives to daily conflicts, exercising the users' right to health in their relationships with health team members and the community.
