The World Health Organisation defines medication adherence as “the extent to which a patients’ behaviour in taking their medication corresponds to agreed recommendations by their healthcare provider”. Up to 25% of patients, across all medical conditions, do not take their medication. Patients with poor adherence have worse outcomes and higher health care costs.
