Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed significant weaknesses in the global health system,  including the lack of preparedness in the pharmaceutical sector to handle large-scale crises.  The pharmaceutical industry and pharmacists play a strategic role in ensuring drug  availability, vaccine production, distribution of medical supplies, and public education. This  article aims to systematically review the critical roles of the pharmacy sector during  pandemic responses and to evaluate necessary preparedness strategies for future health  emergencies. A literature review approach was used, focusing on international publications from the last decade. The findings highlight that cross-sector collaboration, digitalization of  pharmacy services, strengthening of supply chains, and emergency preparedness training for  pharmacists are key strategies in building global pandemic resilience. Additionally, inclusive  and evidence-based policies are essential to optimize the contribution of pharmacists and the  pharmaceutical industry in sustaining global health security. These insights form a strong  foundation for developing more resilient pharmacy systems in the future.

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology has transformed various health and pharmaceutical sectors. Digital pharmacy refers to the use of information and communication technology to provide online pharmaceutical services such as consultations, therapy monitoring, and drug purchases through digital platforms, so as to improve access and efficiency of pharmaceutical services, especially in hard-to-reach areas. Cross-border telemedicine and e-commerce-based pharmaceutical services offer great opportunities, such as increasing access to pharmaceutical services in remote areas and accelerating drug distribution and can make it easier for patients to get drug information, consultations, and drug delivery without having to come directly to the pharmacy. However, the main challenges include regulatory and legal aspects, such as differences in regulations between countries that can hinder the operation of cross-border services. Limited access to technology and lack of public understanding of the use of digital platforms are also obstacles.

Abstract

Patient adherence to medication is a critical factor for the success of pharmacological therapy, yet low adherence remains a challenge in many healthcare systems. Pharmacist-led education has emerged as a promising strategy to improve medication adherence. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of pharmacist educational interventions on patient adherence through a literature review approach. A total of 19 national and international articles published in the last 10 years were reviewed. Findings indicate that interventions such as face-to-face counseling, educational booklets, SMS reminders, and training on proper medication use significantly enhance adherence, reduce the risk of complications, and improve patients’ quality of life. These results reinforce the strategic role of pharmacists in delivering patient-centered pharmaceutical care.

Abstract

Kurangnya pemahaman masyarakat mengenai perbedaan antara obat generik dan obat bermerek menjadi salah satu alasan mengapa penggunaan obat generik masih rendah, terutama di daerah perbatasan Indonesia dan Malaysia. Banyak orang berpikir bahwa obat generik kualitasnya lebih buruk dibandingkan obat bermerek, padahal keduanya sama-sama efektif dan aman. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan kesadaran warga Desa Merubung, Kecamatan Tekarang, mengenai pentingnya memahami perbedaan antara obat generik dan bermerek. Kegiatan ini dilakukan dengan metode edukasi partisipatif melalui penyuluhan interaktif menggunakan media visual berupa Power Point yang diikuti oleh 40 peserta. Untuk mengukur tingkat pemahaman peserta, dilakukan uji coba sebelum dan setelah penyuluhan. Hasil menunjukkan adanya peningkatan signifikan pada nilai rata-rata peserta, yaitu dari 58,00 meningkat menjadi 93,25 setelah penyuluhan, yang menunjukkan bahwa pemahaman masyarakat terhadap materi meningkat. Edukasi ini terbukti efektif dalam meningkatkan kesadaran masyarakat untuk menggunakan obat secara rasional dan bijak. Kegiatan serupa diharapkan dapat berlanjut terus-menerus agar masyarakat di daerah perbatasan semakin memahami dan mandiri dalam penggunaan obat
