The objective of this study was to conduct a cross-sectional evaluation of pregnancy indicators, child growth failure, and the effect of antenatal care on birth outcomes in a marginalized community under the care of a health center in Suan Phung District, Ratchaburi Province. Health and socioeconomic data about children born in 2007 and their parents were obtained from the sub-district health center and district hospital were collected and analyzed by univariate and multi- variate methods. Most of the residents in the study were Karen ethnic origin. Data was available for 152 children, of which 136 met study inclusion criteria. Health outcomes of the study population significantly different from the general Thai population included higher average parity (2.53 ± 1.99 vs 1.735; p<0.001), lower average birth weight (2,876.05 ± 399.48 grams vs 3,200 grams, p<0.001), and lower average height-for-age and weight-for-age (p<0.001). The prevalences of stunting, underweight and wasting were higher than the general Thai population (p<0.001). Having fewer than 4 antenatal care (ANC) visits was associated with low birth weight (unadjusted OR 4.88, 95% CI 1.13-21.05; adjusted OR 5.77, 95% CI 1.27- 26.30).

    The Business and Management Review, Volume 9 Number 1 July 2017 Drugstores in Bangkok, Thailand: The business of responsibility for people Pimporn Thongmuang Department of Aesthetic Health Science College of Allied Health Science, Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University Bangkok, Thailand Keywords drugstores, responsibility, Thailand Abstract The purpose of this research are 1) to survey the number of drugstores that unlawful dispended of asthma prescription drugs, in form of a poly-pharmacy (drug set), in 7 districts of Bangkok, Wangthonglang, Dindaeng, Huaikhwang, Pranakorn, Phayathai, Pomprapsattruphai and Samphanthawong2) to find the steroid contained in that polypharmacy, 3) to find means for informing general public about the danger of the drugs and for conduct a campaign for stop dispending them. Researcher collected polypharmaciesfrom614drugstores in Wangthonglang, Dindaeng, Huaikhwang, Pranakorn, Phayathai, Pomprapsattruphai and Samphanthawong from July 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016. The survey found 10.1 %, or 62drug stores, sold asthma polypharmacy drug to customers without the prescription and the collected samples were tested for steroid contamination by using Immunochromatography test kits. Twenty eight samples, or 45.2%, were found contaminated with steroids. It should also tightly control and closely inspect the practices of drugstores in the distribution of steroid medications. It could be concluded that the drugstores had no social responsibility and no regard for customer safety. To improve the knowledge of self health maintenance and drug usage among public, Thai Government and Department of Public Health should educate people about the side effects of using polypharmacy and steroids. 1. Introduction The problem of using polypharmacy still persists in both Bangkok and other provinces.
