Patients suffered from a large number of drug-therapy problems. Drugs with survival benefit were underused. Noncompliance and the need for additional drug therapy were the most frequently identified drug-therapy problems. Numbers of clinical/pharmacological risk factors, length of hospital stay, and female sex were identified as predictors for noncompliance.
