Adherence to Hypertension Medication in Older People: Empirical Research Quantitative
Our study showed that participants' medication adherence was below the desired level. It was observed that older adults, those with a junior high school education or higher, and those living in urban areas with their children had better medication adherence. These identified predictors may help to identify individuals at high risk of poor adherence, enabling the implementation of effective interventions to reduce the global burden of hypertension.
