A plethora of educational interventions have been implemented in the clinical settings, but no reviews have hitherto been conducted on their effectiveness. This review suggested that education improves health literacy which is directly proportionate to optimal disease management including medication adherence. The suggestions proposed in this review may impact the individual in terms of their adherence to medication to tackle exacerbation and relapse of chronic diseases and also proposed suggestions for future implementation of an education intervention.
