Measurement of medication adherence and health-related quality of life is extremely important when planning different health policies. Drug therapy and adherence to medication are critical to prevent complications of hypertension, especially in countries like Nepal, where hypertension is one of the most prevalent diseases. However, this has not been studied in Nepal. This study, hence, aimed to explore medication adherence, factors affecting medication adherence, health-related quality of life, and the correlation between medication adherence and health-related quality of life in hypertensive patients visiting tertiary care health facilities in Lalitpur district of Nepal.
