Can gender difference in prescription drug use be explained by gender-related morbidity?: a study on a Swedish population during 2006.
(2014) In BMC Public Health 14(1).- Abstract
- It has been reported that there is a difference in drug prescription between males and females. Even after adjustment for multi-morbidity, females tend to use more prescription drugs compared to males. In this study, we wanted to analyse whether the gender difference in drug treatment could be explained by gender-related morbidity.
