Most patients are reluctant to talk with their health professionals about alternative products and therapies. Unfortunately, alternative products may interact with prescription products, and alternative therapies may affect the course of care recommended by the health professional. Compounding these concerns is the fact that the three health providers with greatest access to information on patients' medication use--nurses, physicians and pharmacists--often do not communicate with each other about additional therapies or products that patients use on their own.
大多数患者不愿与他们的医疗保健专业人员谈论替代产品和疗法。不幸的是，替代产品可能会与处方药相互作用，替代疗法可能会影响医疗保健专业人员推荐的护理过程。更令人担忧的是，最容易获取患者用药信息的三类医疗服务提供者——护士、医生和药剂师——往往不会就患者自行使用的其他疗法或产品相互沟通。
