Abstract:
:Objective. To evaluate the effectiveness of a distance-learning course in the training of pharmacists in drug dispensing. Methods. This interventional study was carried out with community pharmacists throughout Brazil. A 12-week distance-learning course was conducted. Pharmacists' knowledge and performance during drug dispensing were evaluated before and after completion of the course. Results. Community pharmacists' knowledge of drug dispensing was greater after completing the distance-learning course than before (mean=5.7, SD=2.8 points vs mean=3.8, SD=1.9 points, respectively). However, no improvement was observed in pharmacists' drug-dispensing practice. Almost all participants (96.5%) considered that they were more qualified to perform the drug dispensing after the course. There were 1492 pharmacists enrolled in the course, of which 1061 were included in the study, and 472 completed the surveys. Only pharmacists from Ribeirão Preto, Brazil, were invited to take the mytery shopper evaluation (n=26). However, 10 pharmacists completed the mystery shopper encounter. Conclusion. A distance-learning course was effective in improving community pharmacists' knowledge. However, the course did not seem to improve overall drug-dispensing performance. Additional educational strategies should be adopted in future studies to address this gap.
