Abstract

Pendahuluan: Self-medication merupakan praktik umum yang dilakukan oleh masyarakat Indonesia, namun berpotensi menimbulkan risiko seperti pengobatan yang tidak tepat, resistensi antibiotik, dan komplikasi kesehatan lainnya. Rendahnya tingkat health literacy diduga menjadi salah satu faktor yang memengaruhi kualitas praktik self-medication di masyarakat. Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi hubungan antara health literacy dengan perilaku self-medication pada masyarakat di wilayah kerja UPTD Puskesmas Sukawarna. Metode Penelitian: Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kuantitatif dengan desain cross-sectional. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan pada tanggal 18 Februari–4 Maret 2025, melibatkan 100 responden masyarakat non-tenaga kesehatan di wilayah kerja UPTD Puskesmas Sukawarna berusia (17–74 tahun) yang dipilih menggunakan teknik accidental sampling. Instrumen yang digunakan meliputi kuesioner HLS-EU-Q10-IDN untuk mengukur health literacy dan kuesioner perilaku swamedikasi untuk menilai perilaku self-medication. Hasil dan Pembahasan: Hasil menunjukkan bahwa 63% responden memiliki health literacy bermasalah, namun 93% menunjukkan perilaku self-medication yang baik. Uji korelasi Spearman Rank menunjukkan nilai signifikansi 0,963 (p > 0,05). Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa perilaku self-medication tidak selalu dipengaruhi oleh health literacy, namun ditentukan oleh keyakinan diri individu dalam menerima informasi dari lingkungan sosial, khususnya saran dari keluarga dan iklan yang tersebar di berbagai media. Simpulan: Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa tidak terdapat hubungan antara health literacy dengan perilaku self-medication pada masyarakat di wilayah kerja UPTD Puskesmas Sukawarna. Diharapkan tenaga kesehatan khususnya perawat, memberikan edukasi mengenai praktik self-medication yang aman dan rasional. Introduction: Self-medication is a common practice among Indonesians, but has the potential to cause risks such as inappropriate treatment, antibiotic resistance, and other health complications. The low level of health literacy is thought to be one of the factors that affect the quality of self-medication practices in the community. Objective: This study aims to identify the relationship between health literacy and self-medication behavior in the community in the UPTD Puskesmas Sukawarna working area. Research Methods: This study used a quantitative descriptive approach with a cross-sectional design. This study was conducted on February 18–March 4, 2025, involving 100 non-health worker community respondents in the work area of UPTD Puskesmas Sukawarna aged (17–74 years) who were selected using accidental sampling technique. The instruments used include the HLS-EU-Q10-IDN questionnaire to measure health literacy and the Self-Medication behavior questionnaire to assess Self-Medication behavior. Results and Discussion: The results showed that 63% of respondents had problematic health literacy, but 93% showed good Self-Medication behavior. The Spearman Rank correlation test showed a significance value of 0.963 (p>0.05). This finding indicates that Self-Medication behavior is not always influenced by health literacy, but is determined by individual confidence in receiving information from the social environment, especially advice from family and advertisements spread in various media. Conclusion: This study shows that there is no relationship between health literacy and Self-Medication behavior in the community in the UPTD Puskesmas Sukawarna working area. It is expected that health workers, especially nurses, provide education about safe and rational Self-Medication practices.
