Abstract

We conducted a cross-sectional survey of pharmacists working in hospitals and community pharmacies in Japan to assess anti-doping activities, aiming to improve athletes’ medication support. An internet survey was conducted anonymously using a structured questionnaire, with items regarding the respondent’s basic information, their collaboration with other healthcare professionals, and their experiences with medication support for athletes. Of the 841 pharmacists who completed the survey, 21.4% had experienced anti-doping inquiries from athletes, and 18.7% of non-sports pharmacists had experienced medication consultations with athletes. Significantly more accredited sports pharmacists than non-sports pharmacists referred to the World Anti-Doping Agency’s (WADA) Prohibited List (p = 0.009), the Global Drug Reference Online (Global DRO) (p < 0.001), and the Japan Pharmaceutical Association’s antidoping hotline (p = 0.001). A significantly greater proportion of male pharmacists (p < 0.001), accredited sports pharmacists (p < 0.001), and pharmacists who cooperated with other healthcare professionals, such as medical doctors and dietitians (p < 0.001), reported that they were confident handling anti-doping inquiries. Although pharmacists generally conduct consultations with athletes, further education is needed, as pharmacists have trouble effectively providing information on doping prevention. Ideally, athletes should consult with accredited sports pharmacists who have undergone continued anti-doping education.

日本药师反兴奋剂活动规定的条件与困难
我们对日本医院和社区药房的药剂师进行了横断面调查,以评估反兴奋剂活动,旨在改善运动员的药物支持。使用结构化问卷匿名进行了一项互联网调查,问卷内容涉及受访者的基本信息、他们与其他医疗保健专业人员的合作情况以及他们在运动员药物支持方面的经验。在完成调查的841名药师中,21.4%有过运动员反兴奋剂咨询,18.7%的非运动药师有过运动员药物咨询。与非体育药剂师相比,被认可的体育药剂师更多地参考了世界反兴奋剂机构(WADA)的禁用清单(p = 0.009)、全球药物参考在线(p < 0.001)和日本药学会反兴奋剂热线(p = 0.001)。男性药剂师(p < 0.001)、经认证的运动药剂师(p < 0.001)以及与其他医疗保健专业人员(如医生和营养师)合作的药剂师(p < 0.001)报告说,他们对处理反兴奋剂调查有信心的比例要大得多。虽然药剂师通常会与运动员进行咨询,但需要进一步的教育,因为药剂师很难有效地提供有关兴奋剂预防的信息。理想情况下,运动员应该咨询经过持续反兴奋剂教育的合格运动药剂师。并于2020年9月4日在线出版
