Abstract in brief
The study found that nearly half (46.5%) of stroke survivors in Malaysia had poor medication understanding and self-efficacy, which affects their medication adherence, with beliefs about medicine being the most common reason for nonadherence.
Several factors, including low health literacy, medication management issues, multiple medications, negative beliefs about medicine, and forgetfulness, were significantly linked to low self-efficacy in taking medication.
Improving health literacy and addressing medication management challenges could enhance stroke survivors’ confidence and adherence in medication regimens, thereby potentially improving health outcomes.]

This episode discusses medication management, focusing on patient values, roles of occupational therapists, and how to adapt medication routines for better adherence and reduced stress for patients and caregivers.
Occupational therapy offers a holistic approach to medication management, addressing physical, cognitive, and visual components from the start of care to improve adherence and reduce caregiver fatigue.
