Assessing Readability and Usability of Electronic Medicine Package Leaflets in South Korea: A Mixed-Methods Study

The current e-labeling format may not sufficiently meet patients' needs for medicine information. To support successful implementation, e-labeling should be redesigned with a focus on patient-centered principles, ensuring equitable access, and being tested in real-world settings. Education and awareness campaigns on how to use e-labeling would provide practical guidance and encourage acceptance among patients. These findings provide patient-centered evidence to inform improvements in e-labeling policies and design.

Abstract

The current e-labeling format may not sufficiently meet patients' needs for medicine information. To support successful implementation, e-labeling should be redesigned with a focus on patient-centered principles, ensuring equitable access, and being tested in real-world settings. Education and awareness campaigns on how to use e-labeling would provide practical guidance and encourage acceptance among patients. These findings provide patient-centered evidence to inform improvements in e-labeling policies and design.
