| Abstract: | Introduction: Global consumption of antibiotics in humans has increased
by nearly 40% between 2000 and 2010. Non-adherence with antibiotic
regimens for community acquired infections is found to be high and the
level of knowledge about antibiotics use amongst European countries remains
low. Objectives: To assess whether an educational intervention enhances medication adherence in patients taking antibiotics at community level. |
