Methods : 144 pharmacy students at the University of Prishtina were recruited in this study to complete a self- administered questionnaire. The total number of questions in this questionnaire was eight ( 8), covering two (2) major themes: self-report of the current and past antibiotic use and behavior; and anticipated prescription behavior of antibiotics upon graduation. The data was statistically analyzed through using SPSS for Windows. Descriptive analysis was employed, and the results were expressed in frequency and percentages. Results : The results showcased a good knowledge of antibiotic among students. The most common answer of students' knowledge about antibiotics was good or moderate (82 %), while 63.2% of the subjects used antibiotics by self-decision , most of them (45 %) for sore throat. Upon graduation, 56.9 % of the students will not sell antibiotics without prescription and 85.4% think that module for rational use of antibiotics is very necessary to be inside the pharmacy syllabus. Conclusion : The study showed good and moderate knowledge of pharmacy students regarding the antibiotics. Half of them use antibiotics by self-decision but the majority of them stated that they will not serve the antibiotics without medical prescription. Specific modules and training for proper antibiotic use should be implemented within the Pharmacy program in The Faculty of Medicine. 2016 artículo científico 1885-642X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=69044429010 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/690/69044429010/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/690/69044429010/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/690/69044429010/69044429010.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/690/69044429010/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=690 Pharmacy Practice application/pdf Centro de investigaciones y Publicaciones Farmacéuticas Pharmacy Practice (España) Num.1 Vol.14 |
