dc.description.abstractAim: Antithrombotic drugs are high-risk drugs and their side effects are the most important problems that negatively affect compliance with medication and treatment. The aim of our study is to evaluate medication compliance and treatment satisfaction in patients receiving anticoagulant and antithrombotic therapy in a community pharmacy. Methods: This study was cross-sectional, prospective, and consisted of patients receiving antithrombotic and anticoagulant therapy. It was conducted in a community pharmacy in Istanbul. The Medication Adherence Report Scale (MARS) and the Duke anticoagulant satisfaction scale (DASS) were administered face-to-face to the patients. SPSS 15.0 statistical program was used for the analysis. Results: The median age of the patients was 79 and 62% of them were female patients. The median duration of anticoagulant use of the patients was 3 years, and 40% of them were using clopidogrel. The patients' median MARS score was found to be 22 and the median DASS total score was 39. DASS total score and its subdimensions were found to be significantly positively correlated (p<0.001). Patients with low educational levels and patients using warfarin were found to have a higher DUKE total score (p<0.05). Conclusions: According to the results of our study, although the patients' medication adherence scores and treatment satisfaction were high, it was found to be lower in patients with low education and warfarin use. Therefore, considering these results, it may be important to provide drug information counseling services to patients receiving anticoagulant and antithrombotic treatment.
