Which is more important, explaining the medication or management plan better or actually simplifying the regimen?
Simplifying the regimen is likely to be more important in addressing adherence in the first instance. There is not much point to lengthy explanations about medications or plans if the regimen is too complex to deal with. The more frequent the dosing the less likely the drug will be taken. Also, different delivery devices can lead to confusion regarding best aerosol technique and result in poor drug delivery. Simplifying the regimen is an important first step which can then be built on.
