Participants are asked to bring all their current medications with them at the time of their appointment. For prescription medications, the interviewer records the name of the medications, the strength, the number prescribed and the actual amount taken during the last two weeks. For over-the-counter medications (including vitamins and supplements), the interviewer records the name, strength and actual amount consumed in the previous two weeks. Researchers should review the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis Medication (MESA) Methods section in the Diabetes Supplemental Information for specific directions on coding medications (see Diabetes Supplemental Information MESA Manual of Operations). The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) maintains a searchable database of brand name drugs, generic drugs and therapeutic biological products which is useful in classifying the medications.
