dc.descriptionIntroduction: The high costs of medicines make it necessary to consider the use of generic drugs to reduce the financial impact on health systems, often mistrusting the quality of the generic product, this study seeks to assess the perception of the personnel in charge of the dispensing of medicines on the subject. Methods: 42 dispensers of drugstores were interviewed. An observational descriptive study with a transversal design was carried out. A mixed questionnaire called PAMPEFG-01 was used. Results: It was found that most druggists usually recommend generic medications and have a good knowledge of the generic concept. 38.1% of them confuse generic medicine and essential medication and 52.4% consider that generics do not have bioequivalence with the original medicines. 69% of drug users do not believe that generics lead to therapeutic failure and 83.3% do not agree that generics are said to increase undesirable effects. Druggists believe that patients value generics little. Conclusions: Results of this study suggest that it is necessary to insist on greater disclosure and training to health personnel and users on the benefits of the use of generic drugs.en-US
dc.descriptionIntroducción: Los elevados costos de los medicamentos hace necesario plantear el uso de medicamentos genéricos para disminuir el impacto financiero sobre los sistemas de salud, es frecuente que se tenga desconfianza de la calidad del producto genérico, este estudio busca evaluar la percepción del personal encargado de la dispensación de medicamentos sobre el tema. Métodos: Se entrevistaron 42 dispensadores de droguerías. Se realizó un estudio de tipo descriptivo observacional con un diseño transversal. Se usó un cuestionario mixto denominado PAMPEFG-01. Resultados: Se encontró que normalmente la mayoría de los droguistas recomiendan medicamentos genéricos y tienen un buen conocimiento del concepto de genérico. El 38,1% de ellos confunde medicamento genérico y medicamento esencial y un 52,4% considera que los genéricos no tienen bioequivalencia con los medicamentos originales. El 69% de los droguistas no cree que los genéricos lleven a falla terapéutica y el 83,3% no está de acuerdo que se diga que los genéricos aumentan los efectos indeseables. Los droguistas consideran que los pacientes valoran poco los genéricos. Conclusiones: Resultados de este estudio llevan a pensar que se debe insistir en una mayor divulgación y capacitación al personal de la salud y a los usuarios, sobre las bondades del uso de medicamentos genéricos.es-ES
