Medication
Adherence Medication adherence refers to the level of a patient's compliance with prescribed medications, dosage and frequency. It is an important factor in healthcare, as it affects both the effectiveness of treatments and patients’ overall quality of life. Medication adherence has been found to improve outcomes for a wide range of diseases, including cardiovascular disease, asthma, diabetes, and HIV/AIDS. Non-adherence to prescription medications can lead to worsening of symptoms, increased healthcare costs and increased mortality. Improving patient adherence requires healthcare providers to work collaboratively with patients to identify and address any impediments to medication adherence.
