Kid Cards: Teaching Kids About Medicines

NCT00127543 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2021-01-05

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study is being done to see if education about medicines directed toward children will improve their knowledge. The investigators also want to know if this knowledge lasts over time. Right now there are few medication instructional cards that are appropriate for children. Most of the medication cards provide information for adults. Some studies have shown that by teaching children directly, the children may take medicine at the right time for the right reason, have fewer side effects and know more about their medicine.

The purpose of this research study is to see if education about medication helps children learn more about their medicine and if this knowledge lasts.
