| Abstract | Results and discussions: There were 186 students participated in this study (70.4%) among those 131 (%) were CAM users. The most common types of CAM used were Traditional Malay Medicines (83.96%). Majority of them (98%) used CAM based on recommendation by family members, and 60.3% of them believed on the effectiveness of CAM. However there was a small percentage (4.6%) stated that CAM is harmful to health. All CAM and non CAM users agreed that CAM is associated with health, health beliefs and values. Nearly 87% of the participants agreed that having knowledge on CAM can improve medical care. Lack of scientific evidence was among the barriers to CAM use. |
