Are untimed antiretroviral drug levels useful predictors of adherence behavior?

Abstract

We examined cross-sectionally the relationship between untimed drug levels and adherence in 83 individuals. Abnormally low untimed antiretroviral drug levels were sensitive in identifying individuals adherent to 60% or less of medication doses over 3 - 5-week period. An abnormally low drug level was associated with a higher viral load. A single abnormally low untimed antiretroviral drug level can identify an individual with very low adherence at high risk of HIV disease progression and death.
