An open label observational study for Drug adherence in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients
Journal Title: Journal of Drug Discovery and Therapeutics - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 8
Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by abnormalities in carbohydrate, protein, and lipid metabolism. The central disturbance in diabetes mellitus is an abnormality in insulin production or action or both, although other factors can be involved. Medication non-adherence is particularly common among patients with type 2 diabetes and inadequate adherence compromises safety and treatment effectiveness, leading to increased mortality and morbidity.
