Abstract

Herbal and dietary supplement (HDS) use is prevalent among Americans, and sales are increasing. When taken in conjunction with prescription medications, HDS-drug interactions are common, and may result in unexpected and serious patient harm. Patient’s failure to report HDS use to their medical provider, and a provider’s failure to ask specifically about HDS use, further complicate the picture. This paper details the design of an online Quarterly Education Module, QEM, used to educate more than one thousand clinicians in a large western U.S. healthcare system about HDS-drug interactions, and induce them to bridge the patient-physician communication gap.
