“…There is no consensus in the existing literature on the influence of age on treatment discontinuation [51]. Adherence has been reported to increase with age in some studies [49,52], whereas the opposite has also been observed in other published works [4,20,51,53]. The effect of concomitant polypharmacy on medication adherence is also controversial.…”

The effect of comorbidity on medication adherence in diabetic patients is also inconsistent across the existing literature [52].…”

Los factores demográficos como edad o sexo y la multimorbilidad no influyeron significativamente en la (7,8,(22)(23)(24) falta de adherencia . La medicina basada en la evidencia y las guías recomiendan iniciar y ajustar tratamientos antidiabéticos para alcanzar las metas terapéuticas lo más rápidamente posible, muchas (25,26) veces intensificando los tratamientos .…”

“…A systematic review including 27 studies found that adherence to antidiabetic medication can be as low as 38.5% (Krass et al, 2015). A recent study reported an overall antidiabetics adherence in older people of 72.4% (Juste et al, 2018). Additionally, Spanish elderly patients receiving oral antidiabetics showed rates of discontinuation for oral antidiabetics of 46.8% (Menditto et al, 2018).…”
