Abstract

Background: Dental and oral diseases often lead to infections and pain, thus requiring treatment with antibiotics and analgesics. These conditions, if not treated properly, can significantly impact patients' quality of life and may result in further complications. Objective: This study aims to provide an overview of the use of antibiotics and analgesics in prescriptions for dental clinic patients at RSUD Muyang Kute. Method: A descriptive retrospective study was conducted on 80 prescriptions from patients at the Dental Clinic in September 2024. The sampling technique used was random sampling. Results: The majority of patients were female (60%) and within the age range of 26–45 years (37.5%). The most frequently prescribed antibiotic was amoxicillin (92.5%), followed by a combination of amoxicillin and metronidazole (3.75%), lincomycin (2.5%), and cefadroxil (1.25%). The most commonly used analgesic was a combination of paracetamol and dexamethasone (97.5%), followed by mefenamic acid and dexamethasone (2.5%). Conclusion: Amoxicillin and the combination of paracetamol-dexamethasone were the preferred drugs due to their high effectiveness, safety, and relatively affordable cost.
