本研究的目的是描述和调查专业学生使用的品牌药品、自我用药背后的药品系统意识和信任原因、药品信息资源危险发现和药品概况知识。来自Shimoga地区malnad地区的150名学生从两个不同的机构，Shimoga医学科学研究所和国立药学院随机招募。纳入标准为17岁及以上。按照信息完整等排除标准，共排除22名学生。专业学生自我用药的发生率为84%。81.97%的学生对对抗疗法药物有积极的信任，81.82%的学生从以前患病时医生开的处方中学会了自我用药。吸烟者占16.65%，有慢性疾病的学生占12.74%，属于危险人群。约44.93%的学生知道药物相互作用。自我用药最多的是头痛、发烧、咳嗽、感冒、胃肠道感染、口腔溃疡和喉咙感染。调查结果是基于调查对象提供的反馈。 The percentage of self-medication may change with locality and region. The prevalence of self-medication among professional students in Shimoga district was high. This descriptive survey shows that the majority of professional students have a poor knowledge about appropriate self-medication and the knowledge of benefits and risks was also not adequate. This issue needs to be addressed by the responsible authorities.
