Medical non-adherence can lead to serious complications. Lack of awareness among the populace is a major problem leading to health problems that can be easily avoided through proper medical adherence.

As per stats published in 2016 by America Heart Association Inc., around 3 out 4 people in the U.S. do not take their medications as directed, which leads to around 125,000 fatalities each year.

There are several reasons leading to medical non-adherence, the most prominent of them being forgetfulness about taking medication on time, non-affordability of medicines, and lack of awareness about the importance of taking medication in a timely manner.

The clinicians/healthcare professionals have to take efforts to reduce the percentage of medical non-adherence. They have to encourage the patient to take medicines on time and also they have to write medical prescription instructions clearly and have to explain them to the patient. Also, doctors have to reinforce the patient verbally to take medications as prescribed and have to explain the benefits and losses of medical adherence. Also, by keeping continuous communication with patient doctors can identify the fear or problems behind the non-adherence of medication and can solve them.
