Background: Worldwide clinical guidelines for the care of kidney transplant (KT) recipients recognize the importance of health care providers imparting appropriate immunosuppressive medication (ISM) information for the facilitation of safe medication self-management. The extent of medication information made available is, however, not necessarily what patients require to know about their prescribed medicines. A useful indicator for determining the quality of prescription practice is to what degree the provided information meets the personal needs of patients. No previous studies have focused on the ISM information needs of KT patients. This study aims to investigate how satisfied KT patients are with the provided ISM information and to examine the association between satisfaction levels and socio-demographic, psychosocial, and transplant-related variables.
