The compliance of the community and private pharmacies' patients.

This issue is an attempt to expose the extent of compliance, respectively of non-compliance among the patients of the community and private pharmacies in Sofia. The authors make an attempt to elucidate the factors that influence upon the non-compliance of the patients in order to increase the rate of compliance among them. The results of the analysis of the received data show that the level of the compliance is 69% among the studied patients. Despite the presented adequate level of compliance among the patients, there are possibilities for the individualisation of the treatment, for supply with more information and for improvement of the patient-physician and patient-pharmacist interrelations.
