| Summary: | The current COVID-19 pandemic is a major challenge for all aspects of life, including aspects of health
services. Pharmacists who serve in pharmacies are on of the professions that deal directly with the risk
of contracting COVID-19 infection because of the important role they carried in the community. The
purpose of study was to assess knowledge and practice related to COVID-19 pandemic condition of
pharmacists serving in West Java pharmacies. The online survey was conducted for 2 months to 895
pharmacist subjects who worked in West Java pharmacies. The results showed that the number of
pharmacist subjects at the pharmacy in West Java province who had adequate knowledge regarding
COVID-19 were 761 people (85%) and pharmacists who applied good practices related to COVID-19
pandemic conditions were 541 people (60%). Pharmacist????s demographic data can be a determining
factor in the level of knowledge related to COVID-19, including 36-45 years old (OR = 3,24; p = 0,010)
and 46-55 years old (OR = 3,68; p = 0,040) pharmacists, and 10-50 patients (OR = 2,05; p = 0,004) and
2 pharmacists/pharmaceutical technician (OR = 1,74; p = 0,020) in the pharmacy. Meanwhile,
pharmacist practices related to the COVID-19 pandemic can be influenced by factor of certain branch
management area Cimahi (OR = 0,04; p = 0,003), Bandung City (OR = 0,06; p = 0,006), and various other
areas. In addition, practice level was influenced by part-time pharmacists (OR = 1,73; p = 0,048), and
the number of patients (OR = 1,66; p = 0,003) and pharmacists (OR = 1,44; p = 0,037) in the pharmacy.
Therefore, it can be concluded that the majority of pharmacists who serve in West Java pharmacies
already have an adequate level of knowledge and apply good practices influenced by some demographic
data of pharmacists in West Java pharmacies.
