As we wish to include the opinions of patients, health professionals, researchers (with expertise in either medication adherence research, or outcomes research), and other stakeholders (journal editors, research funders, pharmaceutical industry representatives, pharmaceutical regulators and policy makers) from across the world, we also ask you/your organisation to disseminate the Delphi survey. Please share the attached flyer with your colleagues/membership/network(e.g. post on your website and/or share via your mailing list).
