This article stems from the International Society of Pharmacoeconom- ics and Outcomes Research (ISPOR) efforts to develop a check- list of items that should be either included, or at least considered, when a retrospective database analysis of medication compliance or persistence is undertaken. This consensus document outlines a systematic approach to designing or reviewing retrospective database studies of medication C&P. Included in this article are discussions on data sources, measures of C&P, results reporting, and even conflict of interests. If followed, this checklist should improve the consistency and quality of C&P analyses, which in turn will help providers and payers understand the impact of C&P on health outcomes. Keywords: compliance, guidelines, persistence, retrospective databases.
