Abstract

Since smoking is a considerable public health problem, in this study community pharmacists’ attitude, habits and actual activities were investigated. In order to collect data, a questionnaire was designed and conducted among 83 pharmacists in the 1st Region of Ankara Chamber of Pharmacists. It was found that 38.6 % of the pharmacists are active smokers and 57.8 % think that pharmacists should not smoke in front of patients. 68.7 % of the pharmacists do not smoke at their pharmacy, 72.3 % think that pharmacists should ask smoking status of their patients who have a disease which can be affected by smoking, 73.5 % of the pharmacists advice the patients who wants to quit smoking and seek their advice to be determined about quit smoking, and 71.1 % of them would like to learn more about smoking cessation methods. It can be concluded that initiatives to increase pharmacists’ tobacco-related knowledge as well as skills and to enhance their sense of responsibility of health promotion may promote pharmacists providing concultancy services with accuracy and effectiveness

Özet

Bu araştırmada sigaranın toplum sağlığını tehdit eden önemli bir sorun olması nedeniyle serbest eczacıların sigara ile ilgili tutum, alışkanlık ve günlük faaliyetleri incelenmiştir. Verileri toplamak için oluşturulan anket formu, TEB II.Bölge Ankara Eczacı Odası 1.Bölge’sindeki 83 eczacıya uygulanmıştır. Sonuçta eczacıların % 38.6’sının sigara içtiği, %57.8’inin hastaların önünde sigara içilmemesi gerektiğini düşündüğü, % 68.7’sinin eczanede sigara içmediği, % 72.3’ünün eczacıların sigaradan olumsuz etkilenecek hastalığı olan kişilere sigara içip içmediklerinin sorulması gerektiğini düşündüğü, % 73.5’inin sigarayı bırakmak isteyen ve kendilerinin önerisini almaya gelen hastalara sigarayı bırakma konusunda kararlı olmaları gerektiğini tavsiye ettikleri ve % 71.1’inin sigara bırakma yolları hakkında daha fazla bilgi edinmek istedikleri belirlenmiştir. Sonuç olarak, eczacıların sigara ve sigarayı bırakma ile ilgili bilgi ve yeteneklerini artırıcı ve halkın sağlığını geliştirme konusundaki sorumluluk duygularını geliştirici girişimler, eczacıların hastalarına doğru ve etkili bir danışmanlık yapmasını sağlayabilir
