Brochures can be used as a valuable educational tool to effectively educate a group of people. It can be used as an educational tool for patients regarding various conditions and medications that can be used to treat particular conditions or diseases. For example, a brochure can be used to convey important information regarding a particular medication, such as drug classification, side effects, drug interactions, patient education, and adverse effects, among others (Pakhchanian et al.,2020). Therefore, the formulated brochure has been designed to teach about current medication and explore various aspects of the medication.

The brochure is intended to serve as an educational tool regarding the use of  Jesduvroq tablets in the treatment of anemia which is usually caused by chronic kidney disease in a patient who has been on dialysis. The intended audience for the education is 7th grade. The medication helps in reducing or avoiding the need to have red blood cell transfusions (Singh et al.,2021). Therefore, it is hoped that the brochure will be key in helping the targeted audience to have the required level of understanding regarding the medication. Of importance is to help the targeted audience know what needs to be done when a patient observes adverse effects, side effects, and possible drug interactions.

If the intended brochure audience has a low health literacy level, then it is necessary to revise the information so that it can fit the audience. First, it will be important to assess the audience to have an understanding of their actual literacy levels so that the material can be aligned as appropriate. One of the aspects or strategies to consider is the use of simple language that the audience will understand. For example, the side effects, drug interactions, and adverse effects will have to be written in simple language devoid of difficult medical terms.
