To identify factors associated with pharmacist dispensing practice and comfort counseling patients about pre-exposure prophylaxis for HIV prevention (PrEP). Cross-sectional 2016 census of Indiana managing pharmacists measured PrEP awareness, comfort dispensing and counseling patients. Modified Poisson models with robust error variance estimated relative risks and confidence intervals. 15.8% of 284 pharmacists had dispensed PrEP and 11.6% had consulted about it. Dispensing and comfort counseling were associated with confidence in knowledge about PrEP medication adherence and adverse effects of PrEP medication; awareness about PrEP before the survey, number of full time pharmacists in their pharmacy, and increases in new HIV cases from 2015 to 2016 in communities served. Comfort counseling about PrEP was associated with the belief that pharmacists can be an important resource for HIV and HCV treatment.
为了确定与药剂师配药实践和为 HIV 预防（PrEP）患者提供舒适咨询相关的因素。2016 年对印第安纳州管理药剂师进行的横断面普查衡量了 PrEP 的知晓率、配药和咨询患者的舒适度。使用稳健方差的修正泊松模型估计了相对风险和置信区间。284 名药剂师中有 15.8%的人配过 PrEP，11.6%的人咨询过 PrEP。配药和咨询舒适度与对 PrEP 药物依从性和 PrEP 药物不良反应知识的信心相关；对 PrEP 的认识，其药店的全职药剂师人数，以及服务社区 2015 年至 2016 年新 HIV 病例的增加。对 PrEP 的舒适咨询与相信药剂师可以成为 HIV 和 HCV 治疗的重要资源有关。
