Chronic Disease Clinical Trial
Official title:
Identifying Reasons for Non-adherence in Patients With Multi-morbidity: A Protocol for Prospective Observational Study in Primary Care
The study will be carried out during pharmacist-conducted medication reconciliation. The pharmacist will ask how the patient has been taking the prescribed medicines and whether any over-the-counter medicines and food supplements have been used for self-medication. The data will be analyzed for descriptive statistics to identify 1) the number of discrepancies between the physician's prescription orders and the patient's self-reported use of the medicines, 2) what kind of discrepancies there are, and 3) which of them negatively influence patients' medicine taking.
