Abstract

Background: The development of the pharmaceutical industry has produced drugs with similar names and physical forms, known as LASA. The similarity of LASA drugs is a serious concern because it can cause confusion among pharmacist and increases the possibility of errors at dispensing, such as taking the wrong drug. LASA drug management is pharmacist’s responsibilities in pharmaceutical services. This study aims to evaluate the knowledge of pharmacist and the management of LASA drugs in Semarang Regency Pharmacies. Method: This study is a non-experimental study. Questionnaires were given to pharmacists in Semarang Regency Pharmacies. The results were tested using Chi Square to determine the relationship between knowledge and management, knowledge and errors in taking LASA drugs and management and errors in taking LASA drugs. Results: The results of the study showed that the knowledge of pharmacists >70% was in the good category. LASA drug management has been carried out in >70% of pharmacies. There are still 32.47% medication errors in taking LASA drugs. Analysis showed that there was no significant relationship between knowledge, LASA drug management, and errors in taking LASA drugs. Conclusion: From this study it can be concluded that LASA drug management in Semarang Regency Pharmacies is in the good category.

Abstract

Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) is a chemical analysis equipment that works on the premise of atoms absorbing energy. Atomic spectrometry is a method of measuring spectrum that is related to absorption and atomic emission. Atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) is a technology that uses free gaseous atoms to absorb electromagnetic radiation at a given wavelength and generate a quantifiable signal. Atomic absorption spectrophotometry is a technique of quantitative elemental evaluation whose size is primarily based totally at the absorption of mild at positive wavelengths via way of means of metallic atoms in a loose state. Atomic absorption spectrophotometry has an instrument that is arguably similar to other types of spectrophotometry but atomic absorption spectrophotometry has a distinctive feature in instrumentation, namely the atomizer. This atomizer will absorb the wavelength directly proportional to Lambert's law. Atomization in atomic absorption spectrophotometry is divided into 3: Atomization with Flame, Vapor Generation Method, Furnace atomization. Interferences in AAS can be categorized into two general groups: spectral and non-spectral. Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) stands as a pivotal analytical technique employed across diverse industries, playing a crucial role in the identification and quantification of metallic elements present in a given sample. In the future, AAS could be further developed and improved for applications in various fields.
