Development of a behavioural theory-based New Medicine Service toolkit for community pharmacists to promote medication adherence
The behavioural theory-based NMS toolkit was developed for use by community pharmacists to identify and address reasons for nonadherence in patients newly started on medications to manage hypertension, diabetes, or dyslipidemia. This toolkit will assist community pharmacists in developing personalized interventions to overcome nonadherence problems in patients who are newly starting medications. Future studies should be conducted to assess the impact of this new toolkit on patients' medication adherence levels and clinical outcomes.
