Özet

Introduction: Adherence to antiretroviral treatment (ART) is critical for the success of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection treatment. There is no approved consensus that defines adherence. In this study, it was aimed to examine the adherence rate of our patients with high-efficacy ART and to determine the factors affecting treatment adherence.
