Science - Medical: Health Care / Skin conditions | | French term or phrase: conduire à une mauvaise observance | "Les agents antiacnéiques administrés par voie topique entraînent des effets secondaires et les caractéristiques physiologiques de certains d’entre eux, tels que la trétinoïne et le peroxyde de benzoyle, conduisent à une mauvaise observance."
Can anyone enlighten me as to the meaning of 'conduire à une mauvaise observance' please? I've never heard of it, don't know the exact meaning and therefore have no idea where to start to translate it into English.
Any help much appreciated.
TIA

because I didn't like bad rather than poor, results was the wrong verb form for the sentence and Michael's answer was too long. Yes, as a matter of fact I should be working. |
