Objective

To assess therapeutic compliance in osteoporosis in women in a Primary Care (PC) setting.

Patients and methods

Observational, descriptive, cross-sectional and multicenter study, conducted in PC centers of the 17聽Spanish Autonomous Regions. 1,649聽women who had initiated treatment for osteoporosis at least 3聽months before entering the study were recruited. To assess therapeutic compliance, two questionnaires, the Haynes-Sackett or self-communicated compliance test (AC) and the Morisky-Green test (MG) were used.

Results

Patients鈥?mean age (卤 SD) was 66.59 years (9.5) and the mean time since diagnosis was 5.08 years (4.87). Bisphosphonates were the most precribed drugs (82%of the patients) and only 52%of the patients were taking calcium and vitamin聽D supplements. Analysis of the therapeutic compliance level shows that, as per the MG test, 68.7%of the patients were non-compliers, and 11.2%were non-compliers as per the AC test.

Conclusions

An important percentage of women with post-menopausal osteoporosis in Spain's PC setting show a high level of non-compliance.
