Medication Adherence and its Affecting Factors among Older Adults
26.4%) of them had low medication adherence. It was found that medication nonadherence was higher among those with insufficient/barely sufficient income (OR=1.888, 95%CI=1.114–3.201, p=0.018), not recognizing the medicines they used (OR=1.334, 95%CI=1.072–1.660, p=0.010), and in those believing injectable medicines to be more efficient than other types of medicines (OR=2.016, 95%CI=1.172–3.468, p=0.011). Conclusion: Medication nonadherence is quite common among older adults. Medication nonadherence is known to be a key factor for treatment failure. Therefore, it seems necessary to ensure medication literacy among older adults to eliminate medication non-adherence.
