(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2022-10-04) Zelaya Aguirre, Gladys Felicita; León Apac, Gabriel Enrique
The purpose of this thesis was to verify compliance with Good Prescribing Practices (GPP) and analyze Good Dispensing and Sales Practices in Botica Latina and Botica Líder in the San Martín de Porres and San Juan de Lurigancho districts, respectively, during the period of January–March 2019. A descriptive and prospective study was conducted, in which 270 medical prescriptions were evaluated and received from hospitals, clinics, solidarity hospitals, polyclinics, and private practices. 106 were from Botica Latina and 164 were from Botica Líder. To evaluate compliance with Good Prescribing Practices, the Manual of Good Prescribing Practices from the Ministry of Health and the General Directorate of Medicines, Supplies, and Drugs of Peru was used, as well as the respective manual for the analysis of good dispensing practices. It was found that 78.5% (212 prescriptions) omitted the patient's age, 76.3% (206 prescriptions) omitted the diagnosis, and 93% (251 prescriptions) omitted the issuance and expiration date. 65.2% (176 prescriptions) omitted the INN (International Nonproprietary Name), 43% (116 prescriptions) omitted the concentration, and 39.3% (106 prescriptions) omitted the dose frequency. Consequently, it is concluded that there is non-compliance with Good Prescribing Practices, which will limit dispensing in both districts.

(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2021-10-05) Soto Goya, Kenji Jesús; León Apac, Gabriel Enrique
The general objective of this research was to describe the perception and actions of healthcare professionals regarding the prescription of generic drugs in healthcare centers in Lima in 2021. For this purpose, a non-experimental, descriptive, and cross-sectional design was used. The population was all healthcare professionals in Lima, and a probabilistic sample of 384 professionals was selected. A structured virtual questionnaire, previously validated by experts and with a high reliability (0.82), was applied to them. The results indicate that 87.8% of the sample had a high level of perception of generic drugs, and 64.8% of the healthcare professionals were at a high level of generic drug prescription. It was concluded that the overall perception and prescription actions regarding generic drugs in Lima's healthcare centers in 2021 indeed depend on intervening factors such as being a doctor, not having a specialization, and being between 26 and 35 years old. The dimensions of knowledge, confidence, professional competence, and legal-commercial aspects were also found to be significantly related to these intervening factors (p≤0.05).
