You can improve a patient’s adherence by simplifying regimen characteristics which will make sure that it isn’t overly complicated and the patient won’t stop taking the medication because it’s instructions are confusing to them.

Imparting knowledge to the patient will allow the patient to understand and be aware of the consequences and might make them trust it more.

Modifying patient beliefs will target specific intentional reasons why the patient stops taking medication and provide the patient with a medication that tailors the unique needs for them..

Patient communication involves the patient's family and includes them for social support and understanding like helping younger or elderly patients take their medications in case they cannot do it by themselves.

You can help the patient to trust the medication more by changing the education and information to the patients level of understanding

Example:
Patient adherence is preventing the patient from taking their medication.
