Protocol - Medication Inventory

Description:

Participants are asked to bring all their current medications with them at the time of their appointment. For prescription medications, the interviewer records the name of the medications, the strength, the number prescribed, and the actual amount taken during the last 2 weeks. For over-the-counter medications (including vitamins and supplements), the interviewer records the name, strength, and actual amount consumed in the previous 2 weeks.

Protocol:

Medication Reception

As you know, the XXX Study will be describing all medications its participants are using, both prescription and over-the-counter. These include pills, liquid medications, skin patches, eye drops, creams, salves, inhalers, and injections, as well as cold or allergy medications, vitamins, herbal remedies, and other supplements. The letter you received about this appointment included a plastic medications bag for all your current medications and asked you to bring them to the clinic. Have you brought this bag with you? Are these all the medications that you have taken in the past 2 weeks?

Personnel and Training Required

The interviewer must be trained to conduct personal interviews with individuals from the general population. The interviewer must be trained and found to be competent (i.e., tested by an expert) at the completion of personal interviews. The interviewer should be trained to prompt respondents further if a "don’t know" response is provided.

Equipment Needs

These questions can be administered in a computerized or non-computerized format (i.e., paper-and-pencil instrument). Computer software is necessary to develop computer-assisted instruments. The interviewer will require a laptop computer/handheld computer to administer a computer-assisted questionnaire.

Requirements

Requirement Category	Required
Major equipment	No
Specialized training	No
Specialized requirements for biospecimen collection	No
Average time of greater than 15 minutes in an unaffected individual	No

Mode of Administration

Interviewer-administered questionnaire

Life Stage:

Child, Adolescent, Adult, Senior

Participants:

Although this protocol was originally developed for participants between 45-84 years old, the Diabetes Working Group notes that it can be administered to adults of all ages or to children by an adult proxy.

Specific Instructions:

Researchers should review the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis Medication (MESA) Methods section in the Diabetes Supplemental Information for specific directions on coding medications (see Diabetes Supplemental Information, MESA Manual of Operations). The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) maintains a searchable database of brand-name drugs, generic drugs, and therapeutic biological products, which is useful in classifying the medications.

Expert Review Panel note: The Expert Review Panel wants to alert investigators to the fact that the form requests information about medications taken over the previous 2 weeks, which may result in the form omitting a medication taken on a monthly basis. However, this medication will be captured in the prescribed medication section.

Selection Rationale

The Diabetes Working Group preferred a comprehensive, interviewer-administered review of medication containers to simple questions about insulin and oral diabetes medications because respondents may be taking many medications for multiple conditions.
