Abstract
DOI : 10.26650/IstanbulJPharm.2019.19012 Magistral drugs are preferred when present preparations are not sufficient. Even though , the tendency of their usage ha d been decreased , it is predicted that magistral applications will be used more often in the future. In this study pharmacists and pharmacy emplo yees, who work in 95 pharmacies in Malatya city center and accepted to join the study (n=203 ), filled a questionnaire which was prepared by using the literature. In the analysis of the obtained data, frequency and percentages were calculated by using SPSS 24.0 program. It was observed that 11.1 of the pharmacies were close to a health center and 88.0 of the participants were preparing magistral drugs. It was stated that 55.2 of the participants prepared magistral medications 1 2 times a week According to the results, although the frequency varied with the localization of pharmacies, magistral drug preparation ratios w ere generally similar with the literature. Preferred magistral drug forms were; cream (74.7 %%), pomade (69.8 and solution (54.7 in order. Of the participants who stated themselves to be insufficient in magistral drug preparation 19.5 said that the p rescriptions were insufficient and 33.3 reported that the doctors' prescriptions were incomplete or unreadable.
