Introduction

Taking medication as prescribed. ,

Depression may compromise medication compliance.[1]

Pharmacy-dispensed custom blister packs improves compliance[2]

Adherence to antihypertensive drug treatment is poor[3]

  • 50% of patients self discontinue within 1 year
  • 10% of doses skipped on any given day
  • 95% of patients miss at least 1 dose/year
  • 50% miss at least 1 dose monthly
  • 50% take at least 1 drug holiday of at least 3 days yearly

Patients are less likely to be compliant with their medications after CABG than after PCI[6]

  • direct observation benefits are not sustained past the period of direct observation[4]
  • outcome benefits of medication adherence may exceed benefits of the medications themselves (based on clinical trial data) confounding estimates of the true benefit of adherence[5]

systems approach suggested[9]

most commercially-available electronic adherence monitoring devices do capture whether patients adhere to drug regimens[10]

patients who read visit notes have a better understanding of prescribed medications
