Abstract

Self-medication for minor illnesses such as the common cold is generally done by the community. In situations like this, the role of pharmacists is very important in providing education to improve patient safety. This study aims to analyze the effect of pharmacist intervention (pretest-posttest) on the level of knowledge and outcome of self-medication therapy for common cold patients at Kasih Agape Pharmacy Medan. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest design approach on the knowledge and outcome indicators, while the patient satisfaction indicator used a descriptive quantitative research design. The sample consisted of 50 patients who were in the intervention group (pretest-posttest), randomly selected using a purposive sampling technique. The intervention was given in the form of pharmacist education and counseling. Data were collected using a questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability. The results of the analysis showed that there was a significant increase in the level of knowledge (p <0.05) and outcome of therapy (p <0.05) in the intervention group compared to the pretest and posttest. These results can also be seen as increasing patient knowledge, and the outcome of therapy can have an impact on increasing patient satisfaction. This study shows that pharmacist intervention can effectively improve the quality of self-medication for the common cold in patients. This study emphasizes the importance of the active role of pharmacists in providing education to support safe, rational drug use and improve therapeutic outcomes.

Abstract

This study evaluates the hepatoprotective effects of ethanol extract of mobe leaves (Artocarpus lacucha Buch-Ham.) in rats induced with carbon tetrachloride (CCl4). The objective was to determine the extract's efficacy in reducing liver damage markers, specifically total bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels, and to assess liver macropathology. The ethanol extract was prepared by maceration using 96% ethanol. Results showed that administering 400 mg/kg body weight (BW) of the extract significantly reduced total bilirubin, ALT, and AST levels in CCl4-induced rats. Additionally, liver macropathology observations indicated improved liver conditions in the treatment group. Phytochemical screening revealed bioactive compounds like flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, saponins, triterpenoids, and glycosides, which are potential antioxidants and hepatoprotective agents. The significant contribution of this research is providing a scientific basis for using mobe leaf extract as a natural hepatoprotective agent, highlighting its potential for safe and effective herbal medicine. Further research and clinical trials are recommended to validate these findings and explore the extract's therapeutic applications.

Abstract

Doxorubicin, a well-known chemotherapy drug, is associated with cardiac toxicity primarily due to oxidative stress. This oxidative stress leads to the production of reactive oxygen species and a subsequent decline in antioxidant levels. As doxorubicin induces the formation of free radicals and decreases endogenous antioxidants, it triggers various hematological and biochemical abnormalities. Consequently, the use of antioxidants has been proposed as a strategy to mitigate this damage. This study focuses on the administration of ethanol extract from Andaliman (EAF) fruit, recognized for its rich array of metabolites and antioxidant properties, which may serve as a cardioprotective agent against the adverse effects of doxorubicin. The research involved comprehensive observations, including hematological and clinical chemistry examinations. The findings indicate that EAF demonstrates protective effects by enhancing hematological and clinical chemistry parameters in male Wistar rats subjected to doxorubicin. Notably, these improvements were statistically significant when compared to the control group. Given its promising results, further exploration of EAF as a protective agent for hematological and biochemical health warrants attention and development.

Abstract

Controlling blood glucose is paramount in diabetes management, yet medication non-adherence often hinders optimal outcomes. This study investigated the impact of pharmacist counseling on Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG) levels and medication adherence in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients within a rural primary healthcare setting. A quasi-experimental pre- and post-test design was employed with 112 T2DM outpatients from Puskemas Simpang Mamplam, Bireuen City, Aceh, Indonesia, from March to April 2024. Medication adherence was assessed using the MARS-10 Questionnaire, and FBG levels were measured via finger prick. The majority of participants were female (79.5%), aged 41-60 (45.5%, mean age 55.70 ± 10.07 years), with secondary education (43.8%), predominantly sedentary/inactive workers (60.7%), and reported low-income (38.4%). Data analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon Signed rank Test. Following counseling, which was provided every two weeks over the two-months period, the mean medication adherence score significantly increased (p < 0.001) from 3.150 ± 0.942 to 8.790 ± 1.297. FBG levels also significantly decreased (p<0.05), from an initial mean of 308.98 ± 72.995 to 220.42 ± 68.547 at two weeks, 162.36 ± 50.191 at four weeks, and 130.00 ± 27.774 at six weeks. These findings suggest that pharmacist counseling significantly improves both medication adherence (p < 0.001) and glycemic control (FBG decrease, p < 0,05) in T2DM patients.
