The Effectiveness of the Use of Technology in Patient-Centred Care for Counterfeit Drug Control
Counterfeit drugs impose risk to human life and properties. Many organizations globally are involved in counterfeit drugs control with focusing on pharmaceutical production and supply chain, while less or rare efforts are invested at terminal intervention by the end users. This study focused on end...

Counterfeit drugs impose risk to human life and properties. Many organizations globally are involved in counterfeit drugs control with focusing on pharmaceutical production and supply chain, while less or rare efforts are invested at terminal intervention by the end users. This study focused on end users in the six geopolitical zones in Nigeria. A prototype Information System (IS) developed using Short Message Services of Mobile Telecommunication System. The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model was adopted with new two relevant variables namely, Zero-Cost and Health Condition introduced to fit the context of this study. UTAUT employed to investigate the key factors affecting the users’ intention to use the Patient-Centred System for Counterfeit Drug Control (PACSCDC) using Questionnaires Survey. Two groups involved in the investigation on fake drugs awareness and factors influencing users’ intention using the system and its effectiveness. Random sampling technique adopted for participant, 1391, 2593 respectively, the reliability of data collected and survey achieved with Cronbach’s Alpha value of 0.713 and 0.949 respectively.
