[Knowledge and ability of patients concerning the administration of nasal drops].
The study tried to find out what patients know on the application of nose drops when leaving the pharmacy. As could be shown knowledge and ability were not satisfying. Two third of the patients applied their nose drops in a correct single dose but in too long intervals. Almost the half did not know the correct technique of application. Only 2% of the patients mentioned the pharmacist as source of their information. The results require a more effective information about the application of drugs by the pharmaceutical staff.
