INTRODUCTION
Self-medication is common among medical students. Medical and dental students can also educate the population about the use of medicines. The aim of the study was to find the mean knowledge score of self-medication among first and second year medical and dental students at a medical college in Nepal.
METHODS
A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out in a medical college from 1st to 28th February 2021 using a structured online questionnaire after obtaining approval from the Institutional Review Committee (approval number 077/78/32). Convenience sampling method was undertaken. The responses were analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 26.
RESULTS
Out of 173 students the mean±SD knowledge score was 79.47±6.76. The mean knowledge score of the participants of age group 17-18, 19-20 and 21-22 years were 83.8, 79 and 79.1 respectively. The mean knowledge scores of the male and female participants were 80.2 and 78.6 respectively. Similarly, the knowledge scores of respondents from undergraduate medical and dental backgrounds were 80.1 and 77.7 respectively.
CONCLUSIONS
Knowledge of self-medication was high among the students. However, educational sessions to further improve and strengthen knowledge can be carried out to improve the knowledge.
简介
自我用药在医学生中很常见。医学生和牙科学也可以向公众宣传药品使用知识。本研究的目的是了解尼泊尔一所医学院的医学生和牙科学第一、二年级学生自我用药的平均知识得分。
方法
本研究于 2021 年 2 月 1 日至 28 日在一所医学院进行了一项描述性横断面研究，采用经过机构审查委员会批准（批准号 077/78/32）的在线结构式问卷。采用便利抽样方法。使用社会科学统计软件包 26 对结果进行分析。
结果
在 173 名学生中，平均知识得分±标准差为 79.47±6.76。年龄组为 17-18 岁、19-20 岁和 21-22 岁的参与者的平均知识得分分别为 83.8、79 和 79.1。男性和女性参与者的平均知识得分分别为 80.2 和 78.6。同样，本科医学和牙科背景的受访者的知识得分分别为 80.1 和 77.7。
结论
学生对自我用药的知识掌握程度较高。然而，可以开展教育课程，进一步提高和加强知识，以提高知识水平。
