Abstract:
The aim of this study is to discuss the implications of a good adherence to antiretroviral therapy, the factors affecting adherence, and the different methods used today to evaluate it. As conclusion, the authors emphasize the convenience of an interdisciplinary collaboration between professionals in order to improve patient's adherence. The possibility to use a multifactorial approach to assess adherence, taking into account psychological variables, is also underlined.
