Abstract
Having adequate drug information search skills is crucial in order for today’s pharmacists to optimize
pharmaceutical care. Howard University College of Pharmacy seeks to better prepare students for this skill by
offering a core course entitled, “Drug Informatics”. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the drug information
search skills and preferences of the students using a questionnaire. A survey was designed with 18 questions and
given to a sample of 65 pharmacy students in their 4
professional year. Data was analyzed by using frequency
and Chi square (SPSS) to determine the relationship between students’ demographic and their drug information
searching skill or preferences. Survey participation was 48% (31 of 65) with 42% male and 58% female. The most
frequently used resources were online databases. Participants who were young or with BA/BS degrees appeared
to search more frequently. Most drug information questions received were related to adverse drug events and drug
identification. Most participants were confident in their retrieved information and searching skills. The results of this
survey will help to improve the design of current drug information coursework.
