  • Title: Patient drug self-administration improves regimen compliance.
    Author: D'Altroy LH, Blissenbach HF, Lutz D.
    Journal: Hospitals; 1978 Nov 01; 52(21):131-2, 134-6. PubMed ID: 700622.
    Abstract:
    Through a hospital's three-phase program, inpatients learned about their medications and gradually accepted responsibility for self-administration of these medications, for developing their schedules, and for adhering to their regimens. A postdischare follow-up study showed that the program had substantially improved patient compliance with medication regimens.
