    Author: Litchman HM.
    Journal: R I Med; 1993 Dec; 76(12):608-10. PubMed ID: 8312649.
    Abstract:
    Medication noncompliance is a significant public health problem with both economic and quality of life dimensions. The physician should be aware of the frequency of the occurrence and develop strategies to reduce its incidence. This includes simplification of prescription practice, patient education and adequate instructions. The physician has to accept the role of a motivator as a part of the education process.
