Abstract

AIMS: The aims of this study was to determine adherence to chronic disease medication measured by self-reported questionnaire. METHODS: The survey was conducted at 106 Zagreb pharmacies, and the questionnaire was filled out by the study subjects. RESULTS: A total 1,357 diagnoses were reported by survey respondents (i.e., an average of 2.1 diagnoses per respondent). The most common diagnoses were diseases of the circulatory system (n = 500; 36.8%). The great majority of study subjects reported forgetfulness ('I just forgot') as the main reason for skipping drug doses. CONCLUSIONS: Among the many reasons people give for not adhering to drug treatment, forgetfulness was the most common. Common barriers to adherence are under the patient's control, so that attention to them is a necessary and important step in improving adherence. The existence of more than one cause of risk considerably increases the non-adherence risk of a patient.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
