Medication Adherence among Hypertensive Patients in Primary Healthcare in Bandung City

Socioeconomic impacts on medication adherence among patients with hypertension: A multicentre cross-sectional study in Lombok, Indonesia

“…In addition to rural-urban setting, education also had a positive association with adherence (p < 0.001). In parallel with this, studies in Bandung, which is located in the western part of Indonesia, have reported that more patients with higher education have better adherence levels (Sinuraya et al 2018). Similar results have been reported in other developing countries, such as Nigeria and Ghana (Boima et al 2015).…”

“…International studies have reported that adherence with antihypertensive medications is typically 50% and in developing countries is lower (Hill et al 2011;Burnier and Egan 2019). Findings in Indonesia have shown different adherence levels among patients with hypertension across various areas, ranging from 20%-59% (Chusna et al 2014;Liberty et al 2017;Rahmadani and Sari 2018;Sinuraya et al 2018).

Previous small studies in Indonesia have mainly reported the levels of adherence among patients with hypertension which is variable across Indonesia, ranging from 20%-59% (Chusna et al 2014;Liberty et al 2017;Sinuraya et al 2018;Rahmadani and Sari 2018); however, the impact of socioeconomic status variations on adherence are understudied. The knowledge of any such association would be of importance, particularly in the disadvantaged areas with limited health resources such as West Nusa Tenggara, in helping practitioners to prioritise patients who are less likely to adhere to their treatment.…”
