Overview

This study outlines General Practitioners’ (GPs) opinions on the problems of adherence as learnt from questionnaires. In a previous publication (4) we presented the results determining the patients’ attitude to pharmacotherapy (PT). Here we focus on GPs opinions and their views on the problems of communication with patients regarding pharmacotherapy (PT). Identification of the main reasons for the problem of non-adherence and relativization of the patients’ views compared with the General Practitioners’ opinions may be the first step to solving this problem.

Key words:
compliance, adherence, quality of health care, evaluation of pharmacotherapy, patient’s opinions, medicines (pills) taking, physician characteristic features, instruction for a patient, trust in a physician.
