19 1) TENETS OF LOW ADHERENCE TO MEDICATIONS NO 1. There is no such thing as a non-adherent personality Patients - 83%- don t tell physicians of their adherence. Physicians -74%- believe their patients are adherent Adherence to prescription medications is largely not related to compliance or self-care and lifestyle Effects of demographics - age, gender, education, & income - on adherence are small. 4 1 D Hevey KL Lapane Am J Manag Care 2007;13:613 - AL Goldberg, Soc Sci Med 1998;47: CA McHurney, Curr Med Res Opin 2009; 25:21 4 MR DiMateo, Med Care 2004; 42:200

20 2) TENETS OF LOW ADHERENCE TO MEDICATIONS YES 5. Patients want to know why the medication is prescribed, duration, possible side effects, what could happen if they don t take it, and cost / affordability Health care professionals should communicate less poorly on prescription medications - av. 49 sec, appropiate 3% Taking medications is a decision-making process. Patients actively decide about their medications. 7 5 CA McHurney, Cur Med Res Opin 2009;25:215 BJ Bailey, Progr Cardiov Nurs 1997; 12:23 - DK Ziegler, Arch Int Med 2001;161:706 6 DM Tarn, Patient Educ Cours 2008; 72:311, Arch Int Med 2006; 166: SL William, Clin Interv Aging 2007; 25:453
