Optimizing Adherence to Antiretroviral Therapy
Summary
- More complex ART regimens and adverse drug reactions are associated with poorer adherence to ART (Management Guidelines)[Thompson 2012]
- Simplified ART regimens have been associated with better adherence[Atkinson 2009; Blaschke 2008; Boyle 2008; DeJesus 2009; McKinnon 2009; Protopopescu 2009; Airoldi 2010; González-García 2010; Sax 2012; Nachega 2014]
- Suboptimal adherence can still occur even when the regimen is simple to take because adherence may be influenced by other factors[Sabate 2003]
