Abstract

E-pharmacy or telepharmacy is a form of ICT-based health service that facilitates consultation with medical practitioners. Telepharmaceutical services in Indonesia have not been implemented widely. This is because ICT access has not been perfectly spread throughout Indonesia. There is also still little socialization related to telepharmaceuticals, so that the understanding of telepharmaceuticals cannot reach the public, which causes telepharmaceuticals to not being implemented properly. This study aims to determine the relationship between the sociodemographic characteristics of respondents and the level of patient knowledge of drug information services using telepharmacy. This research is a descriptive quantitative correlation research. Respondents in this study amounted to 401 people. Statistical test using Chi Square test obtained p value < 0.05 for age and education test with telepharmaceutical knowledge, which can be concluded that there is a relationship between respondent's age and education with telepharmaceutical knowledge; and p value > 0.05 for the test of gender, occupation, frequency of application use with telepharmaceutical knowledge, which can be concluded that there is no relationship between gender, occupation, frequency of application use and telepharmaceutical knowledge.

Abstract

The Indonesian Food and Drug Authority (BPOM) investigated and listed safe and unsafe syrup products in response to the contamination of Ethylene Glycol (EG) and Diethylene Glycol (DEG), causing Acute Kidney Injury in pediatric patients. Unsafe products were recalled and removed from distribution, leading to uncertainty and panic among the public and significantly impacting over-the-counter syrup sales in several pharmacies. This retrospective observational study assessed the impact of EG and DEG contamination on the sales of over-the-counter syrup in Pharmacy X in South Denpasar. Data from three months before (August to October 18th, 2022) and three months following the official instruction was published (October 19th, 2022 to December 2022) were analyzed using Wilcoxon test. The findings reveal a staggering decline in the sales of over-the-counter syrup by 35,03% (p-value of 0.03). Moreover, there was a notable increase of prescriptions in powder forms. The contamination cases caused panic, resulting in changes in behavior and consumption patterns. Despite the availability of safety information on an official website, public hesitance toward syrup products persists, indicating the need to implement a more effective strategy to address misinformation and restore public trust. Each individual must be responsible for educating the public during crises to prevent the spread of misinformation, ultimately restoring trust and normal consumer behavior. Furthermore, efficient stock management should be implemented to anticipate potential health crises in the future proactively.

Abstract

Changes in land use from rice fields and plantations to residential areas, offices, and trading complexes will certainly result in changes in the biodiversity of the environment of the inhabitants of the capital city of Jakarta, including the Betawi community. The scarcity of certain species due to land conversion also affects people’s ethnobotanical knowledge. This study aimed to explore how the Betawi people, with the rapid flow of urbanization, use medicinal plants around them. A total of 25 respondents of the selected Betawi ethnicity were interviewed about the use of medicinal plants. Purposive sampling and snowball sampling were used. The data obtained from the respondents were collected and compared using triangulation techniques with previously published ethnobotanical reports. The results showed that as many as 61 species from 36 families were used by the Betawi people to support their health. Ginger, lemongrass, and jatropha are the most widely used plants. The most widely used species belong to the Zingiberaceae family. The most commonly used part is the leaves (55%), the most common processing method is boiling (48%), the most common way to administer the medicine is by drinking (49%), and as much as 61% of medicinal plants are used in the home. In conclusion, the Betawi people still maintain the tradition of using herbal medicine amidst the high rate of urbanization in the capital city of Jakarta. Furthermore, it is necessary to conduct further experiments in the laboratory to validate the safety, efficacy, and identification of the active ingredients in these plants.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a disease in which blood sugar (glucose) levels are elevated because the body cannot release or utilize insulin adequately. Rhizome of Zingiber officinale Rosc. (ginger) has been reported to possess anti-diabetic properties. This study aimed to provide information on the chemical components of ginger that have potential in silico antidiabetic activity against the α-glucosidase receptor. Twenty chemical components of ginger (quercetin, catechin, humulene, β-sesquiphellandrene, camphene, farnesene, β-sitosterol, stigmasterol, curcumin, 6-gingerol, 8-gingerol, 10-gingerol, 6-shogaol, 8-shogaol, 10-shogaol, 6-paradol, 8-paradol, 10-paradol, methyl-6-gingerol, and methyl-8-gingerol) were used as ligands. An in silico study was conducted using the molecular docking technique with the AutoDock Vina software, which was then displayed using PyMOL and Biovia Discovery Studio. The grid box settings obtained in this study were as follows: center_x = -20.209, center_y = -6.763, center_z = 9.393, size_x = 12, size_y = 10, size_z = 12, and spacing (angstrom) = 1. The results indicated that the native ligand acarbose exhibited a binding energy of -6.9 kcal/mol. In contrast, four test ligands, quercetin (-7.3 kcal/mol), catechin (-7.1 kcal/mol), curcumin (-7.0 kcal/mol), and 6-gingerol (-7.0 kcal/mol) - demonstrated lower binding energies than acarbose, suggesting more stable conformations and more potent pharmacological effects. Lipinski analysis revealed that these four test ligands met all five Lipinski rule criteria. The study calculated the Root Mean Square Deviation (RMSD) value for the Docking of acarbose with the α-glucosidase macromolecule, resulting in a value of 0.384 Å. Interaction analysis conducted using Biovia Discovery Studio software revealed various interaction types, including hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic, electrostatic, and unfavorable interactions. In conclusion, this study provides valuable insights into potential therapeutic compounds derived from ginger and offers a foundation for further research and development in pharmaceutical and medicinal chemistry.

Abstract

E-pharmacy is one of the efforts to improve pharmaceutical services to make them easier and more efficient. Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI) is a scale that can describe consumer satisfaction with a product or service. Customer satisfaction with e-pharmacy services can be assessed by the value of customer expectations for service quality and the reality of the service performance received. This study aims to examine the level of consumer satisfaction, expectations, and priorities for attribute improvement in the dimensions of e-pharmacy services so that service providers can evaluate and improve their services. Furthermore, the analytical method in this study uses an analysis of the results of the gap based on the Service Quality (Servqual), Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI), and Importance Performance Analysis (IPA). The results of this study indicate that attributes' performance on the dimensions of e-pharmacy services is not satisfactory. Customer satisfaction in e-pharmacy service is 86.11% or in the 'very satisfied' category. Meanwhile, the service attribute prioritized for service providers is to improve the guarantee that the drugs given are in good condition (by showing the drug's expiration date).
