Compliance and self-medication in cystic fibrosis
A. Meyers, T. F. Dolan Jr and D. Mueller
Sixty-one patients with cystic fibrosis were studied to determine the
relationship between degree of compliance with taking antibiotics and
severity of the disease. The compliance rate was high in these patients,
suggesting that perception of the severity of the disease and the potential
consequences of discontinuing medication is a principal factor.
