Abstract
The objective of this study was to explore whether patients use a headline section in a patient information leaflet to find key information about their medicines in a user-test. Quantitative findings showed the headline was used for 55/140 opportunities (39%), and qualitative findings suggested the headline was viewed as a positive inclusion. Conclusion: The headline section was only used just over a third of the time, but its inclusion was viewed as a valuable addition.
