研究概览

简要总结

The purpose of this study is to find out whether talking to a pharmacist on the telephone can help to support people taking medicine for a long-term condition.

详细描述

Non-adherence to medication is common and although some interventions have shown promise in improving adherence, the findings are inconsistent. This randomised controlled trial aims to test the effectiveness of a pharmacy-based telephone intervention compared to usual care on medication adherence and health outcomes in patients taking medicines for a long-term condition.
