Hi there

My name is Chris, I'm a research associate in the Helen Hamlyn Research Centre, based at the Royal College of Art in London.

I'm working on a project about medication compliance (i.e. taking pills/doses to the correct timetable or programme), and the ways in which pill packaging can help compliance.

I'm currently trying to gather a variety of medication users to answer some questions and inform me about their experiences with medication packaging.

If you think you could spare a little time or give some input/opinions on the subject, I would love to hear from you. You could email me directly (0cm1@rca.ac.uk) or post here, as I will look on this board regularly.


Thanks for reading.

Chris

Hi Chris

If you haven't already you might want to contact some renal dialysis and transplant patients whos drugs are lifesaving.

There are always crucial compliance problems with teenagers but that does have much more to do with sideeffects than packaging.

Things such bleeps have already been issued by the pharma companies.
