Patient education and counseling

New pharmacological measures assessing medication adherence, including longitudinal drug levels in hair, are emerging. Little is known, however, about how best to present results from such measures to patients and clinicians in comprehensive, easy-to-understand, acceptable formats. We, therefore, developed three graphical display prototypes of hypothetical daily drug concentrations measured in hair, and assessed their acceptability among participants. ⋯ Acceptable prototype-tested graphical displays of longitudinal patient-specific drug concentrations may enhance adherence monitoring in clinical settings.
