Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory condition that can significantly affect patients and society at large due to decreased quality of life, direct and indirect costs and subsequent socioeconomic burden. Medication adherence plays a big role in optimal disease management, as higher adherence is associated with lower disease activity. We examine the differences between intentional and non-intentional non-adherence and suggest potential solutions on how to integrate this understanding into clinical practice to improve medication adherence.
