- Abstract
Medication non-adherence in patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is endemic. The PANDIA-IRIS study, implemented at the community pharmacy of Unisanté, illustrates the support of medication adherence in patients with DKD by pharmacists, through an interprofessional program (IMAP) based on a behavioral science theoretical framework. Implementing behavioural support programmes such as PANDIA-IRIS on a large scale in Switzerland is both a necessity and a challenge. These programmes should be an integral part of standard patient care. The transition of care towards interprofessional collaborations and a clarification of roles in supporting adherence, including the patient as a partner, will contribute to fully considering adherence in therapeutic decision making and support to enable better achievement of long-term clinical goals., Competing Interests: Les auteures n’ont déclaré aucun conflit d’intérêts en relation avec cet article.
