Latar belakang: Di masa pandemi COVID-19, swamedikasi menjadi isu kesehatan yang meningkat. Salah satu populasi terdampak yaitu mahasiswa. Pandemi COVID-19 menyebabkan peningkatan pencarian informasi swamedikasi pada mahasiswa. Situasi pandemi COVID-19 juga dapat menyebabkan perubahan persepsi sehat pada individu yang memicu praktik swamedikasi. Kendati demikian hingga saat ini belum diketahui hubungan antara persepsi sehat dengan swamedikasi. Tujuan : Menganalisis gambaran persepsi sehat dan perilaku swamedikasi obat bebas di masa pandemi COVID-19 pada mahasiswa Universitas Indonesia serta hubungan kedua variabel tersebut. Metode: Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan metode cross-sectional analitik dan pengumpulan sampel dengan metode purposive random sampling. Terdapat 152 responden yang merupakan mahasiswa Universitas Indonesia semester 5-8. Pengambilan data dilakukan dengan menyebarkan kuesioner secara daring dengan media google form. Hasil: Persepsi sehat sebagian besar mahasiswa Universitas Indonesia selama pandemi COVID-19 baik. Proporsi mahasiswa yang melakukan swamedikasi obat bebas selama pandemi COVID-19 adalah 71,71%. Jenis obat bebas yang digunakan oleh mahasiswa selama pandemi COVID-19 sebagian besar adalah antitusif dan antipiretik. Terdapat hubungan signifikan antara persepsi sehat subvariabel kesehatan umum dengan perilaku swamedikasi obat bebas pada mahasiswa Universitas Indonesia selama pandemi COVID- 19 (p=0.001; OR 4,503; 95% CI 1,754 - 11,557). Kesimpulan: Terdapat hubungan signifikan antara persepsi sehat subvariabel kesehatan umum dengan perilaku swamedikasi obat bebas pada mahasiswa Universitas Indonesia selama pandemi COVID-19 (p=0.001; OR 4,503; 95% CI 1,754 - 11,557). Hal ini dapat dipengaruhi oleh situasi pandemi COVID-19 yang rentan menimbulkan stres pada mahasiswa sehingga berdampak buruk bagi persepsi sehat mahasiswa dan memicu praktik swamedikasi.

Introduction: During the COVID-19 pandemic, self-medication has become an increasing health issue. One of the affected population is students. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to an increase in the search for self-medication information for students. The COVID-19 pandemic situation can also cause changes in health perception in individuals that trigger the practice of self-medication. However, until now there is no known relationship between the health perception and self-medication. Objective: Analyzing the picture of health perception and self-medication behavior of over-the-counter drugs during the COVID-19 pandemic among University of Indonesia students and the relationship between the two variables. Method: This research was conducted by cross-sectional analytic method and sample collection by purposive random sampling method. There are 152 respondents who are students at University of Indonesia semester 5-8. Data collection was done by distributing online questionnaires using google form media. Result: The health perception of most University of Indonesia students during the COVID-19 pandemic is good. The proportion of students who self-medicated with overthe-counter drugs during the COVID-19 pandemic was 71 .71%. The types of over-thecounter drugs used by the students during the COVID-19 pandemic were mostly antitussive and antipyretic. There was a significant relationship between the perception of health in the general health sub-variable with self-medication behavior in University of Indonesia students during the COVID-19 pandemic (p=0.001; OR 4,503; 95% CI 1,754 - 11,557). Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between the perception of health of the general health sub-variable with self-medication behavior in University of Indonesia students during the COVID-19 pandemic (p=0.001; OR 4,503; 95% CI 1,754 - 11,557). This can be influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic situation which is prone to causing stress to students so that it has a bad impact on students' health perceptions and triggers the practice of self-medication.
