Effectiveness of Visual Storytelling Intervention on Antibiotic Adherence in UTI Patients in Pakistan: a Randomized Controlled Trial
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a visual storytelling intervention in improving antibiotic adherence among adults with urinary tract infections (UTIs). Participants will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group, where they will receive a visual sticker on their antibiotic packaing, explaining the importance of completing their antibiotic course, or the control group, which will receive routine care. The study will measure how well participants follow their prescribed antibiotic regimens and assess their knowledge and attitudes toward antibiotic use. The goal is to determine if visual storytelling can enhance adherence, reduce antibiotic resistance, and improve health outcomes.
