Poor adherence can lead to worsened medical conditions, increased healthcare costs and reduced quality of life.

We delve into the factors affecting adherence, the role of healthcare providers and the strategies that can be employed to empower patients in taking control of their health. Keywords: Medication adherence, Patient education, Counseling, Health outcomes, Healthcare providers.
