50% of patients do not take their medications as prescribed

22% of people don't even fill their prescriptions.

Asymptomatic diseases such as hypertension, high cholesterol and diabetes have the lowest treatment compliance.

When a patient is admitted to the hospital, medications are strictly administered by nurses and maintained through the Medication Allocation Record (MAR).

This strict adherence and monitoring alone can effectively treat uncontrolled hypertension, diabetes, and congestive heart failure.
