The effects of medication non-compliance results in poorer outcomes for patients and wasted therapy regimens. During this program we will identify current treatment of oral drug medication compliance, challenges of medication management on behalf of both the provider and the patients, and share best practices on how to effectively educate and empower patients to successfully complete their medication regimen.
