Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication

The Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM) is a 14-item generic measure developed by Atkinson and colleagues in 2004 to assess patient satisfaction with medication across diverse therapeutic areas and disease conditions. It measures four key dimensions—Effectiveness, Side Effects, Convenience, and Global Satisfaction—with standardized 0–100 scoring, making it suitable for cross-disease comparison and health economic evaluation. The TSQM has become a standard outcome in pharmaceutical research, clinical trials, and real-world medication effectiveness studies.
