Penggunaan obat selama kehamilan perlu diperhatikan karena sebagian besar obat dapat melintasi plasenta dan tidak aman bagi janin. Faktanya, hanya sebagian kecil masyarakat khususnya ibu hamil yang mengetahui keamanan obat-obatan pada kehamilan. Berdasarkan hal tersebut diperlukan adanya edukasi kepada pihak-pihak terkait yang memberikan pelayanan kesehatan ibu hamil, dalam hal ini adalah kader posyandu. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu menilai tingkat pengetahuan kader posyandu sebelum dan sesudah diberikan edukasi serta menganalisis pengaruh edukasi terhadap pengetahuan kader. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain kuasi-eksperimen dengan rancangan one group pretest-posttest. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah flyer edukasi.
