Which of the following meds is most likely to be associated with non-adherence because the patient is not experiencing symptoms of the underlying medical condition?

Pain medications

Hypertension medications

While all of these medications could potentially lead to non-adherence, hypertension medications are most likely to be associated with it because high blood pressure often does not cause noticeable symptoms. Patients may be less inclined to take their medication regularly since they do not see immediate consequences of not doing so. Pain medications and arthritis medications both address uncomfortable symptoms that the patient may want relief from, making them less likely to skip doses. Similarly, Parkinson's disease medications may improve a patient's quality of life by managing their symptoms, so they are less likely to miss a dose.
