Article Synopsis
- Clear patient instructions are crucial for effective pharmaceutical care, but there is a notable gap between the readability of medication information and the skills of many individuals, particularly Spanish adolescents.
- In a study involving 590 students, researchers assessed their understanding of Prescription Medication Leaflets for three medications, both with and without US Pharmacopeia (USP) pictograms, using questionnaires and health literacy assessments.
- Results revealed that comprehension was generally low and fell short of European standards, but the use of pictograms significantly improved understanding, especially for students with higher health literacy levels, indicating a need for better medication labeling strategies.
