Schizophrenia was the most common diagnosis (67%) found among the study participants. Forty-five (45.9%) patients scored high for adherence, 34 (34.7%) had medium score while 19 (20.4%) scored low. Among patients with schizophrenia, 23 (39%) had high adherence, 26 (44.1%) medium and 10 (16.9%) low adherence.
