Lack of knowledge about drugs in children can lead to drug abuse. The purpose of this activity is to educate Young Pharmacists regarding the introduction of drugs and as an embodiment of drug awareness ambassadors from an early age. This activity has been carried out at SD Negeri Mangkura 1 Makassar with 54 participants from 5th-grade elementary school students.
