Abstract

OBJECTIVES

The purpose of this study was to investigate the knowledge and attitudes among pharmacists in Kuwait towards the use of herbs.

METHODS

Self-administered questionnaire was designed as the study instrument and distributed among 100 qualified pharmacists working in government and private pharmacies in Kuwait.

RESULTS

The mean age was 34.2 (SD=7.5) years. About 51% of pharmacists reported they had used herbal therapy in their lifetime. The majority were interested in herbal information, and their herbal information came mainly from their previous classes during college. Although the pharmacists' knowledge about uses of selected herbs was good, their awareness about side effects of those herbs was modest. About 31% of the pharmacists did not have enough information about potential interactions between herbs and conventional medicines.

CONCLUSION

Herbal information is needed for pharmacy students as part of the Pharmacy College curriculum. Continuing education programs for practising pharmacists about the safety of different herbal products should be established in Kuwait.

摘要

目的

本研究旨在调查科威特药剂师对草药使用的知识和态度。

方法

自行设计调查问卷作为研究工具,分发给科威特政府和私人药房工作的100名合格药剂师。

结果

平均年龄为34.2(标准差=7.5)岁。约51%的药剂师报告称他们一生中使用过草药疗法。大多数人对草药信息感兴趣,他们的草药信息主要来自大学期间以前的课程。尽管药剂师对所选草药用途的知识掌握得不错,但他们对这些草药副作用的认识一般。约31%的药剂师对草药与传统药物之间潜在相互作用没有足够的信息。

结论

作为药学院课程的一部分,药学专业学生需要草药信息。科威特应为执业药剂师开展关于不同草药产品安全性的继续教育项目。
