Abstract EN

The Community Pharmacy of the Department of Ambulatory Care and Community Medicine (Policlinique Médicale Universitaire, PMU), University of Lausanne, developed and implemented an interdisciplinary medication adherence program.

The program aims to support and reinforce medication adherence through a multifactorial and interdisciplinary intervention.

Motivational interviewing is combined with medication adherence electronic monitors (MEMS, Aardex MWV) and a report to patient, physician, nurse, and other pharmacists.

This program has become a routine activity and was extended for use with all chronic diseases.

From 2004 to 2014, there were 819 patient inclusions, and 268 patients were in follow-up in 2014.

This paper aims to present the organization and program’s context, statistical data, published research, and future perspectives.
