Summary

Patient-based surveys will be conducted to evaluate the drivers of medication adherence in patients treated with either 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor (5ARI) therapy, alpha-blocker (AB) therapy, or combination therapy for enlarged prostate (EP). Adherence with EP therapy will be evaluated. The researchers believe that the majority of participants will report that they are compliant with therapy. The data source is a cross-sectional patient survey administered at one time point.
