Wayne County Senior Resources

National Survey on Seniors and Prescription Drugs finds that 4 in 10 Seniors do not take medications as prescribed; Poor experiences with drugs and costs contribute to Non-Adherence
Four in 10 seniors told researchers in a recent national survey that they haven't taken all the drugs their doctors prescribed for them in the past year - either because the costs were too high, because they didn't think the drugs were helping them, or because they didn't think they needed them. The survey of 17,685 seniors was conducted by the Kaiser Family Foundation, the Commonwealth Fund and Tufts-New England Medical Center.
