Performance of indirect adherence measures for daily oral pre-exposure prophylaxis for HIV among adolescent men who have sex with men and transgender women in Brazil

However, their performance in identifying those with low adherence might be limited, suggesting that it is necessary to initiate adherence interventions when there is no evidence of perfect adherence. Combining measures can provide wider information on adherence.
