Abstract

This community service activity was conducted as part of the Community Service Program (KKN) to improve public knowledge of proper medicine management based on the DAGUSIBU principles: Get, Use, Store, and Dispose of medicines. The activity was motivated by initial observations in RT 001, Malinau Kota District, Malinau Regency, North Kalimantan, which indicated that some residents stored medicines without checking expiration dates, reused leftover medicines, obtained medicines without consulting health professionals, and disposed of unused medicines with household waste. The activity was conducted on August 1, 2026 through a door-to-door approach involving residents of RT 001. The implementation stages consisted of observation, coordination, preparation of educational media, pre-test, health education, interactive discussion, post-test, and evaluation. Fifteen participants completed a ten-item questionnaire. The results showed that the number of correct answers increased from 107 (71.33%) in the pre-test to 125 (83.33%) in the post-test, while incorrect answers decreased from 43 (28.66%) to 25 (16.66%). Participants also demonstrated high engagement and were able to explain the main DAGUSIBU principles. These findings indicate that education supported by posters and interactive discussion can be a relevant approach for improving community knowledge regarding safe and rational medicine management.
