Measured: Day 1 (when responding to the online questionnaire)
Secondary outcomes (3)
Incidence of intentional dosing irregularities and reasons for this behaviour
Measured: Day 1 (when responding to the online questionnaire)
Impact of dosing irregularity on functional well-being
Measured: Day 1 (when responding to the online questionnaire)
