Impact of quality indicators on opinions on drug reuse

Abstract

Bryan Nasr and Ramos Faiz

Many studies have examined beliefs about drug reuse. Although the practice is banned in some pharmacies, it is carried out in other places in life where it relies on visual checks of returned prescriptions as a sign of their quality. One proposal is to integrate sensor technology into prescription packaging as an indicator of its overall quality. Our aim was to measure people's beliefs about prescription reuse, in a study, independently of sensor technology and of the involvement of visual checks by a pharmacist. A between-participants review with two free factors was planned to test the hypothesis that sensors and visual checks would increase support for drug reuse convictions. A survey was used to measure drug reuse convictions and collect subjective feedback. Some participants took part. Attitudes towards medicines presented for reuse, members' apparent predominant burden to accept the prescription, and their expectation to engage in medicine reuse are increased by the presence of sensors on the packages and by the involvement of the medicines specialist in visual control, with the former option generating a more prominent increase than the latter, and the combination of both generating the largest increase. Subjective comments from individuals gave meaning to their interests about medicine reuse, approving the findings.
