“…However, among studies of AL, adherence by “verified timely completion” (38.7%–65%) [18], [28]–[29] was lower compared to “timely completion” (88.3%–100%) [15], [22], [33], except in studies where the research team enrolled patients at the time the drug was obtained and likely had a more significant research presence than in other studies (90% and 93%) [19], [61]. Similarly, adherence to AL by “verified completed treatment” (64.1%–83%) [16], [24], [27], [29], [60] tended to be lower than for “completed treatment” (67%–100%) [22], [28], [36], [38], [57]–[58], with the exception of two household surveys without pill counts with adherence of 47% [41], [46].…”
