Abstract
To evaluate adherence to oral antihyperglycemic monotherapy, we conducted a retrospective cohort study of a UK clinical database. The mean proportion of days covered was 73.5%, and 60.1% of patients were adherent. Younger age and fewer concomitant medications were negatively associated with the likelihood of being adherent.Entities:
