Abstract

Salah satu permasalahan kesehatan utama adalah resistensi antibiotika yang membutuhkan dukungan utuh dan usaha menyeluruh untuk melawannya. Di Indonesia, resistensi bersifat sporadis, selektif dan tidak berkesudahan. Hal tersebut dipengaruhi salah satunya oleh perilaku penggunaan. Beberapa faktor telah diketahui mampu mempengaruhi penggunaannya termasuk tata kelola yang buruk, lemahnya penegakan hukum, kurangnya pengetahuan, dan akses mudah. Kesalahan konsep dalam pemahaman terhadap antibiotik sangat besar kemungkinan dapat mempengaruhi perilakunya. Hal tersebut tidak hanya mungkin terjadi di masyarakat umum tetapi juga pada mahasiswa kesehatan. Dimana hal tersebut akan sangat mempengaruhi penyampaian informasi kepada masyarakat apabila kelak mereka akan melaksanakan pelayanan kesehatan. Tujuan utama studi ini adalah untuk mengidentifikasi tingkat pengetahuan, dan perilaku penggunaan antibiotika pada mahasiswa farmasi sebagai calon tenaga kesehatan masa depan. Sehingga diharapakan agar mereka mampu memberikan pelayanan kefarmasian yang sesuai. Penelitian potong lintang ini dilaksanakan dengan menyebarkan kuisioner online kepada seluruh mahasiswa aktif program studi farmasi Universitas Muhammadiyah Malang. Pemeriksaan kelengkapan data dilakukan sebelum proses analisis dengan menggunakan SPSS. Dalam penelitian ini didapatkan data dari 327 responden dimana perempuan memiliki prevalesi dominan (86,9%) dan terdiri atas tingkat semester 1 (37,3%), 3 (21,1%), 5 (23,2%), dan 7 (18,3%). Tigkat pengetahuan tentang antibiotika cukup tinggi (72,2%) begitu juga dengan tigkat praktik penggunaannya yang hampir mencapai 70%. Berdasarkan analisis multivariat didapatkan 4 faktor yang secara signifikan mempengaruhi praktik penggunaan antibiotika (i.e. jenis kelamin, tingkat pendidikan, kepemilikan asuransi kesehatan, dan tingkat pengetahuan tentang antibiotika).
