Medication misuse is a sizable problem
Barriers to medication adherence are multifactorial, often complex, and highly individualized. The solutions to improve adherence and achieve optimal outcomes must be multi-modal, adaptable, and personalized to achieve optimal patient outcomes.
According to the National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA), patients who don’t adhere to their medications exhibit at least three of these nine behaviors:
Failure to
fill a prescription
Refusal to
refill a prescription
Frequently miss
medication doses
Taking a lower
dose than prescribed
Taking a higher
dose than prescribed
Stopping
medication too soon
Taking an
old medication
Taking someone
else’s medication
Forgetting to take
prescribed medication.
