What is it about?

The primary purpose of this study is to investigate Egyptian drug consumers’ perceptions and use of Consumer Medicines Information (CMI) leaflets. To the best of the author’s knowledge, this study may be one of the very few that discusses and considers the perspectives of Egyptian drug consumers toward written medicines information. As a result, the current study attempts to investigate such perception and use of CMI. It may assist health care professionals in understanding the purpose of such use, as well as researchers interested in the study of health informatics in Egypt, particularly in terms of written information on medicine. Furthermore, the research could help with the consideration of these medical leaflets as a potential source of health information
