The objectives of this report were to estimate the extent to which pharmacy student perceptions are aligned with the 2003 resolution of the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP) addressing the use of experiential sites that sell cigarettes and other tobacco products.
Pharmacy students participating in a national tobacco cessation training program completed posttraining survey instruments and indicated their opinion about tobacco sales in pharmacies. Responses were examined with respect to students' sex and tobacco use status.
Of 3,064 students, 3.5% were in favor of tobacco sales in pharmacies. Opinions varied by students' sex (p < 0.001) and tobacco use status (p < 0.001); in logistic regression analyses, males (OR = 2.62; 95% CI, 1.77, 3.89) and current tobacco users (OR = 2.31; 95% CI, 1.41, 3.76) were most likely to be in favor of tobacco sales.
Few pharmacy students are in favor of tobacco sales in pharmacies. Given the overall lack of support, and acting in accordance with the 2003 AACP resolution, pharmacy schools are encouraged to use only experiential sites that do not sell tobacco products. Suggested strategies for moving toward this goal are presented.
本报告的目的是评估药学专业学生的看法与美国药学院协会(AACP)2003年关于使用销售香烟和其他烟草制品的实习场所的决议的一致程度。
参加全国戒烟培训项目的药学专业学生完成培训后的调查问卷,并表明他们对药房销售烟草的看法。根据学生的性别和烟草使用状况对回答进行了分析。
在3064名学生中,3.5%的学生赞成药房销售烟草。看法因学生的性别(p<0.001)和烟草使用状况(p<0.001)而异;在逻辑回归分析中,男性(比值比=2.62;95%置信区间,1.77,3.89)和当前烟草使用者(比值比=2.31;95%置信区间,1.41,3.76)最有可能赞成烟草销售。
很少有药学专业学生赞成药房销售烟草。鉴于总体上缺乏支持,并根据2003年AACP决议行事,鼓励药学院仅使用不销售烟草制品的实习场所。本文提出了朝着这一目标迈进的建议策略。
