    The present research aimed to determine the use of drug information sources consulted by interns from the Faculty of Pharmacy and Biochemistry (pre-professional practices, second level) at Norbert Wiener University during the first semester of 2014. Materials and Methods. This was an observational, descriptive, and cross-sectional study. The study included 100% (63) of the interns from the Faculty of Pharmacy and Biochemistry, obtained from a stratified sample. Data analysis was carried out using SPSS version 21 and Microsoft Excel. Results. Regarding the drug information sources most frequently consulted by the interns during their pre-professional practices, it was found that the most used primary sources were Journal of Evidence-Based Healthcare (30%) and JAMA (22%). Among secondary sources, the most frequently consulted were Medline (52%) and PubMed (40%). The most consulted tertiary sources were The Merck Manual Online (52%) and Meyler’s (35%). Likewise, the most consulted drug information centers were CENADIM (51%) and CIM-Wiener (27%). Conclusion. It was determined that the drug information sources used by the interns were primarily for academic and professional development purposes. Interns from the Faculty of Pharmacy and Biochemistry accessed these drug information sources responsibly, through available and widely accepted websites. Therefore, the implementation of the CIM-Wiener for drug information searches is considered appropriate, although further instruction is necessary to ensure that searches are conducted quickly and responsibly given their complexity.
