Outline of Final Research Achievements	There is a need to enhance pharmaceutical education and drug abuse prevention education for junior high school and high school students. In addition, education from parents to students at home, education and health guidance by school pharmacists are required. In this study, a "pharmaceutical education and health support system" was constructed. In this system, information papers on proper use of medicines and prevention of drug abuse are issued to junior high school students, high school students and their parents, designated places where pharmacists can be consulted, and information papers and consultation places can be confirmed on the website. There is room for improvement in the way the system operates, but it has helped students understand the proper use of medicines and has helped to trigger home education from parents to students. It also provided one way for school pharmacists to participate in education.
Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements	中高生への医薬品等教育や薬物乱用防止教育について、その充実化、保護者からの家庭内での教育、学校薬剤師による教育や保健指導が求められている。しかしこれらに対して、学校薬剤師が中心となってさらに生徒も参加、WEBサイトも開設して一体的に取り組む検討はこれまで皆無であった。本研究で構築した「医薬品等教育＆健康サポートシステム」の運用効果は十分でなく課題も残ったが、システム運用に伴う学校側の負担増加はなく、生徒等への新たな情報発信手段や相談環境が確保でき、また学校薬剤師の教育への参加方法の一つを提供できた。
