Abstract

Aloe vera L. has considerable potential as a natural ingredient for oral preparations; however, the inherent bitterness of its leaf powder limits patient acceptability. Effervescent granules were selected to improve convenience and palatability, in which sweeteners may influence both taste and physical performance. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of sweetener type on the physical characteristics of Aloe vera effervescent granules. Granules were prepared by wet granulation using aspartame (F1) and stevia (F2). Evaluations included organoleptic properties, moisture content, flow time, angle of repose, and dispersion time. Statistical analysis was performed using the Mann–Whitney U test for moisture content and Welch’s t-test for other parameters. Both formulations met general quality requirements for effervescent granules. No significant differences were observed in moisture content and dispersion time (p > 0.05). However, flow time and angle of repose differed significantly (p < 0.05). F1 showed faster flow time (1.55 ± 0.05 s) and lower angle of repose (20.40 ± 1.07°) compared to F2 (2.30 ± 0.26 s; 24.70 ± 1.35°), indicating better flowability. These findings suggest that sweetener type significantly influences granule flow properties but not moisture stability or dispersion performance

Abstract

Dysmenorrhea is a common menstrual pain experienced by adolescent girls and can negatively affect quality of life, learning activities, and daily productivity. The high prevalence of dysmenorrhea among adolescents, along with variations in the choice of treatment—both pharmacological and non-pharmacological—highlights the importance of understanding the patterns of therapy use that are safe and effective. This study aimed to describe the use of dysmenorrhea treatment among female students at SMAN 1 Meureudu, Pidie Jaya Regency. This study employed a descriptive design with a sample of 74 respondents selected through purposive sampling. The inclusion criteria were female students who had used pharmacological and/or non-pharmacological therapies and were willing to participate. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using univariate analysis. The results showed that the majority of respondents used non-pharmacological therapy (54.1%), followed by combination therapy (41.8%), and pharmacological therapy (4.1%). The most commonly used pharmacological treatment was paracetamol (40.3%), while the most frequently used non-pharmacological method was warm compress (23.8%). These findings indicate that adolescents tend to prefer non-pharmacological approaches in managing dysmenorrhea. Therefore, appropriate education is needed to ensure the selection of effective and rational treatment methods. Keywords: adolescent dysmenorrhea, pharmacological therapy, non-pharmacological therapy, paracetamol, warm compress

Abstract

Penyakit Infeksi Menular Seksual (IMS) merupakan ancaman serius bagi kesehatan remaja, terutama akibat kurangnya pengetahuan tentang kesehatan reproduksi dan perilaku seksual berisiko. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan siswa SMPN 1 Darul Imarah mengenai kesehatan seksual dan pencegahan IMS melalui edukasi interaktif. Metode yang digunakan adalah ceramah, diskusi kelompok, dan simulasi studi kasus. Peserta kegiatan adalah siswa kelas VIII yang dipilih secara purposive. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan adanya peningkatan signifikan dalam pengetahuan peserta setelah intervensi edukasi, berdasarkan perbandingan nilai pretest dan posttest. Kegiatan ini menunjukkan bahwa edukasi seksual yang tepat, kontekstual, dan sesuai usia mampu meningkatkan kesadaran remaja terhadap risiko IMS serta membentuk perilaku yang lebih sehat. Diharapkan program serupa dapat diadopsi secara berkelanjutan oleh pihak sekolah dan pemangku kepentingan terkait.
