| Abstract: | Abstract : Introduction: The study has been conducted to evaluate the medication adherence and to identify its associated risk factors in epilepsy patients in a tertiary care hospital. Objectives: To measure medication adherence among patients suffering from epilepsy. To determine the various risk factors influencing medication adherence. To find out the association of health-related quality of life with adherence to medication. Methods: A prospective case series study was conducted over six months at Government General Hospital, Anantapuramu, Andhra Pradesh, following Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval. The study included 186 participants, with data collected during routine ward rounds in the General Medicine department through standardized data entry formats, direct patient interviews, and laboratory values extracted from case sheets and reports. Results: Among the enrolled patients (43% female, 57% male), The current study shows that age and medication adherence was significantly associated .All patients (> 60yrs) were non- adherence to their medications. This may be due to the fact that elderly patients have more difficulty in following the physician instructions due to cognitive impairment or other physical deformities such as problems in swallowing tablet, opening pill bottles or handling small tables. Conclusion: Thus it can be concluded that provision of proper patient counselling by clinical pharmacist through use of medication aids can improve medication adherence behavior of the patients and there by the therapeutic outcome of the medications can be prevented, thereby enhancing overall patient quality of life through patient counselling, information leaflets, and education. |
