medication adherence  

Définition

  • Medication adherence or compliance describes patient medication-taking behavior and is defined as the degree to which a person's taking of medication corresponds with health or medical direction, as noted by R. B. Haynes in 1979. Historically, the termcompliance was used as a part of the traditional biomedical model of drug treatment, but it can be interpreted as being pejorative.
