Abstract
When we hand a patient a prescription for medication, we may assume that it will be filled and taken as we've instructed. We too often discover later that fears or unanswered questions kept the patient from ever filling the prescription or that side effects led him or her to discontinue its use. And we may never learn what the patient did if he or she wants our approval or fears our response to the truth.
