Description

Definition
HHDRUGBUYNONMED indicates whether, in the past 12 months, a member of the household bought drugs (medicine) from a non-medical facility (i.e., excluding pharmacies and health care facilities).

The information in HHDRUGBUYNONMED is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
