Abstract：
BACKGROUND: In France, 40% of people aged over 16 (20 million) report having at least one chronic disease requiring long-term treatment. Compliance is estimated to be 50% on average.
OBJECTIVE: To study the practical management of oral treatments at home by people living with one or more chronic diseases.
METHODS: Thirty general practitioners in France were invited by e-mail to enrol ten consecutive patients with chronic diseases.
METHODS: A quantitative, descriptive, observational, cross-sectional study was carried out using standardised questionnaires to assess the socio-demographic profile of doctors and patients and the management of oral medication at home.
RESULTS: Twenty general practitioners collected 180 questionnaires: 69.4% said they did not find taking their medication a problem; 42.8% used a pillbox; 79.4% said they knew \'all\' their medications. 61% reported forgetting to take their medication.
CONCLUSIONS: More than half of patients are non-adherent. Personalised reminders could reduce unintentional medication non-adherence.

摘要：
背景：在法国，16岁以上的人（2000万）中有40％报告患有至少一种需要长期治疗的慢性疾病。合规性估计平均为50%。
目的：研究患有一种或多种慢性疾病的人在家中口服治疗的实际管理。
方法：通过电子邮件邀请法国30名全科医生连续招募10名慢性病患者。
方法：定量，描述性,描述性观察,横断面研究使用标准化问卷进行,以评估医生和患者的社会人口统计学特征以及家庭口服药物的管理.
结果：20名全科医生收集了180份问卷：69.4％的人说他们没有发现服药有问题；42.8％的人使用药盒；79.4％的人说他们知道“所有”药物。61%的人报告忘记服药。
结论：超过一半的患者是非粘附性的。个性化提醒可以减少无意的药物依从性。
