The prevalence and contributing factors of NSAIDs prescription among chronic kidney disease patients in primary care: a mixed methods study from Kingdom of Bahrain

The prevalence of NSAIDs prescription among CKD patients is relatively high in the kingdom of Bahrain - largely due to patient and physician factors as identified by primary care physicians. Possible solutions for addressing these factors include raising awareness among patients, PCPs, and other healthcare workers and activating the Swiss Cheese Model that involves patients, PCPs, and other health team members to ensure appropriate medication practice and patients' safety.
