Abstract

Indonesia has a long experience in traditional medicine such as jamu. The government has been encouraging all sectors, especially pharmaceutical industries together with research institutions and academia to increase herbal medicine research so that herbal medicine is increasingly used in health services, including by medical doctors. Various efforts have been made but empirically it seems that this goal has not been achieved. For this reason, it is necessary to conduct a survey to determine the understanding and use of herbal medicine among doctors. I was a cross-sectional study using an electronic questionnaire distributed to doctors who are members of the Indonesian Medical Association (IMA) per province. Three-hundred sixty-two respondents from 29 out of 38 (76%) provinces of Indonesia responded, and 263 out 362 respondents (72%) are general practitioners. In prescribing herbal medicines only 18.5% prescribed, 35% did not and 46.6% sometimes prescribed, respectively. Of the eleven phytopharmaceuticals/standardised herbal medicines only one medicine No. 5 was widely recognized by respondents (46.6%). This study showed that doctors' understanding of herbal medicine still needs to be improved through various means including webinars/seminars, journals that show good clinical trials so that they are more confident when prescribing herbal medicine to their patients. There is a need for more comprehensive information regarding the indications, efficacy and side effects of herbal medicine, through books or formularies that can be accessed by doctors. In addition, respondents agreed that herbal medicine should be taught in medical schools both in the pre-clinical and clinical phases.

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the non-communicable diseases that is becoming a global health problem. Hypertension can be identified by systolic blood pressure of 140 mmHg and diastolic 90 mmHg . Uncontrolled hypertension can lead to complications such as stroke, ischemic heart disease, heart attack, heart failure, kidney failure, blindness, etc. According to Basic Health Research 2018 ( Ris et Kesehatan Dasar 2018/Ris kesdas 2018) the prevalence of hypertension for >18 years old wa s 8.4%, and through measurements taken in health care facilities by 34.1%. Prevalence in the city was 34.4%, in the village was 33.7%, while according to gender 31.3% f or male and 36.9% for female. The study aimed to find out the knowledge and awareness of laypeople on hypertension and its therapy. This was a cross-sectional online study with 11 questions. Respondents were recruited from social media groups. The results showed 5 00 respondents (62.8 % female and 37.2 % male) involved in this study . The most common age range was 21-40 years (36.2 %), followed by 41-55 years (38.2%) , and the least was 56-65 years old (18.4%). Seventy-two percent of respondents did not have hypertension, and 9% said they did not know. Fifty-three percent of respondents knew about the value of high blood pressure, and 89% of the respondents said hypertension should be treated regularly. The most hypertension complications answered by respondents were stroke (40%), heart attack (26%) , and heart failure (16%). Amlodipine was the most mentioned by the respondents, and the second was ACE-inhibitor. However, omeprazole and omega-3 were also mentioned as anti-hypertension. Genetic s and a high salt diet were risk factors that many respondents chose. In conclusi on, the r espondents have a good understanding of hypertension. Information related to behaviour is needed to discontinue the increasing prevalence.
