To estimate changes since 1976 in the proportion of San Francisco pharmacies that sell cigarettes and to characterise the advertising of cigarettes and the merchandising of non-prescription nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) products in these retail establishments.
100 randomly selected San Francisco pharmacies were visited in 2003. Pharmacies were characterised based on the sale of cigarettes, advertising for cigarettes, and the merchandising of non-prescription NRT products.
In 2003, 61% of pharmacies sold cigarettes, a significant decrease compared to 89% of pharmacies selling cigarettes in 1976 (p < 0.001); 84% of pharmacies selling cigarettes also displayed cigarette advertising. Non-prescription NRT products were stocked by 78% of pharmacies, and in 55% of pharmacies selling cigarettes, the NRT products were stocked immediately adjacent to the cigarettes.
Since 1976, there has been a decline in the overall proportion of pharmacies in San Francisco that sell cigarettes yet most pharmacies, particularly traditional chain pharmacies, continue to merchandise the primary known risk factor for death in the USA.
评估自1976年以来旧金山销售香烟的药店比例的变化，并描述这些零售场所中香烟广告及非处方尼古丁替代疗法（NRT）产品的陈列情况。
2003年走访了100家随机选取的旧金山药店。根据香烟销售情况、香烟广告及非处方NRT产品的陈列情况对药店进行分类。
2003年，61%的药店销售香烟，与1976年89%的药店销售香烟相比有显著下降（p<0.001）；84%销售香烟的药店也展示香烟广告。78%的药店备有非处方NRT产品，在55%销售香烟的药店中，NRT产品紧邻香烟陈列。
自1976年以来，旧金山销售香烟的药店总体比例有所下降，但大多数药店，尤其是传统连锁药店，仍在销售美国已知的主要致死风险因素相关产品。
