Abstract
Introduction: The use of medicinal plants in treatment has a long history, and now medicinal plants are of great importance. However, no study has been done on the problems of groceries. Due to the widespread activity of groceries to apply medicinal plants for treating health problems, this study aimed to investigate the problems with groceries in cities of West Azarbaijan province.
Methods: This is quantitative research in terms of nature, applied in terms of purpose, and descriptive-survey research in terms of the data collection method. The statistical population of the study consisted of 20 groceries in the cities of West Azerbaijan province. The data were collected in a questionnaire. The validity of the questionnaire was determined by content validity and its reliability by Cronbach’s alpha. SPSS software version 11.5 was used for data analysis.
Results: The presence of some dangerous drugs in groceries (mean: 4.78 and standard deviation: 0.53), provision of fake samples in groceries (mean: 4.57 and standard deviation: 0.96), and not checking handmade medicines in groceries (mean: 4.31 and standard deviation: 0.88) ranked the first to third problems and challenges according to the view of groceries in West Azarbaijan province.
