Do patients talk to you about how best to adhere to their medication regimen when at home?

TON - April 2013, Vol 6, No 3 — April 17, 2013

In the February issue we published the article “Adherence to Therapy at Home: The Personal Touch.” This article, written by MMA, a woman undergoing treatment for cancer, addressed the idea that patients feel overwhelmed when they return home with “a bagful” of medications that they must incorporate into their daily life.

We asked our online reading community to let us know if this is a topic they address with their patients. The answer was a resounding yes. All respondents said they do talk to patients about adhering to their medication regimen at home. Respondents indicated that they provide information about how and when to take the medication for the best results.
