Abstract

Introduction: Personal drug exercise helps in the selection of drugs depending on the criteria- safety, efficacy, suitability and cost. Undergraduate medical students are the future practitioners-in-training and should focus more on rational prescribing. This study aimed to find out the prevalence of positive attitudes towards personal drug selection among undergraduate medical students of a medical college.

Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted among second and third-year medical students after obtaining ethical approval from the Institutional Review Committee. Data was collected from 1 December 2022 to 30 May 2023. A convenience sampling method was used. The point estimate was calculated at a 95% Confidence Interval.

Results: Among 132 medical students, 126 (95.45%) (91.90-99.01, 95% Confidence Interval) of the students showed a positive attitude toward P-drug selection.

Conclusions: The prevalence of positive attitudes towards P-drug selection among medical students was found to be similar to other studies done in similar settings.

Keywords: medical students; medicine; perception; prevalence.

医学院本科生对个人药物选择的积极态度。
导言:个人用药实践有助于根据安全性、有效性、适用性和成本等标准选择药物。医学本科生是未来的执业医师培训对象,应更加注重合理用药。本研究旨在了解一所医学院校的本科医学生对个人药物选择持积极态度的普遍程度:这是一项描述性横断面研究,在获得机构审查委员会的伦理批准后,在二年级和三年级医学生中开展。数据收集时间为 2022 年 12 月 1 日至 2023 年 5 月 30 日。研究采用方便抽样法。点估计值按 95% 置信区间计算:在 132 名医学生中,有 126 名(95.45%)(91.90-99.01,95% 置信区间)学生对 P 药物选择持积极态度:结论:医学生对选择 P 类药物持积极态度的比例与在类似环境下进行的其他研究结果相似。
