description | Medicine acceptability is a multi-faceted concept driven by both product and user characteristics. Although a key factor for treatment effectiveness, especially in vulnerable populations, knowledge of those medicine features that best promote individual user acceptability remains fragmented. Focusing on paracetamol, this study has explored the appropriateness of pharmaceutical products in different dosage forms to achieve adequate patient acceptability from infants to centenarians.
This observational, multicentre, prospective study was carried out in 10 hospitals, 8 nursing homes and over 150 community dispensaries. Observers reported several behaviours/events evaluating acceptability for 1016 different pharmaceutical product uses in paediatrics ( |
