Abstract

AIM

To assess the knowledge, attitude, and practices of fixed dose combination drugs among postgraduate dental students.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

A cross-sectional study was carried out among postgraduate dental students of dental colleges in coastal Andhra Pradesh. Three colleges were randomly selected and students of all the three years were included. Data was collected from the specialities of oral medicine and radiology, oral surgery, endodontics, pedodontics, periodontics, and public health dentistry. The total sample was 90 postgraduate students; informed consent was obtained from the participants, and a pretested questionnaire was distributed to them. Data was analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 20 software.

RESULTS

Out of 90 postgraduates, 33 were males and 57 were females. Thirty-five percent were aware of the essential medical list (EML), among them 11% were from oral medicine and radiology and 6.7% were from pedodontics. However, most of them were unaware of the number of fixed dose combination drugs present in the World Health Organization EML. None of them were able to name at least a single banned fixed dose combination drug. Most of them were unaware of the advantages and disadvantages of using fixed dose combination drugs. Amoxicillin with clavulanic acid was the most common drug prescribed by students (73.3%) followed by ofloxacin with ornidazole (54.4%), ibuprofen with paracetamol (53.3%), and sulfamethoxazole with trimethoprim (6%). Most of them were unaware of the rationality in using fixed dose combination drugs. Common sources of information were medical representatives 43 (47.8%), internet 39 (43.3%), and 12 (13.3%) reported using WHO EML.

CONCLUSION

There is an urgent need to improve knowledge on the rationality for using fixed dose combination, EML, and banned fixed dose combination in India to the promote rational use of fixed dose combination.

摘要

目的

评估牙科研究生对固定剂量复方药物的知识、态度和实践情况。

材料与方法

在安得拉邦沿海地区牙科学院的牙科研究生中开展了一项横断面研究。随机选取了三所学院，纳入了所有三个年级的学生。数据收集自口腔医学与放射学、口腔外科、牙髓病学、儿童牙科学、牙周病学和公共卫生牙科学专业。总样本为90名研究生；获得了参与者的知情同意，并向他们发放了经过预测试的问卷。使用社会科学统计软件包第20版软件对数据进行分析。

结果

90名研究生中，33名是男性，57名是女性。35%的人知晓基本药物清单（EML），其中11%来自口腔医学与放射学专业，6.7%来自儿童牙科学专业。然而，他们中的大多数人并不清楚世界卫生组织基本药物清单中固定剂量复方药物的数量。他们中没有人能够说出至少一种被禁用的固定剂量复方药物。他们中的大多数人并不了解使用固定剂量复方药物的优缺点。阿莫西林克拉维酸是学生最常开具的药物（73.3%），其次是氧氟沙星奥硝唑（54.4%）、布洛芬对乙酰氨基酚（53.3%）和磺胺甲恶唑甲氧苄啶（6%）。他们中的大多数人并不了解使用固定剂量复方药物的合理性。常见的信息来源是医药代表43人（47.8%）、互联网39人（43.3%），12人（13.3%）报告使用世界卫生组织基本药物清单。
