Abstract

Objectives: In this study, we investigated the determinants of poor ADHERENCE with anti-TUBERCULOSIS therapy among pulmonary TUBERCULOSIS (TB) patients in MUMBAI, India, receiving Directly Observed Treatment Short Course (DOTS) therapy.Methods: A cross-sectional study on 538 patients receiving DOTS I and II regimen was conducted. Patients were interviewed and clinical and laboratory data were collected. Eighty seven patients were considered non-adherent. Multivariable logistic regression was used to determine risk factors associated with non-adherence.Results: Factors associated with non-adherence were found to be different among the newly-diagnosed patients and all the other residual groups. SMOKING during treatment and travel-related cost factors were significantly associated with non-adherence in the newly-diagnosed patients, while alcohol consumption and shortage of drugs were significant in the residual groups.Conclusions: An approach, targeting easier access to drugs, an ensured DRUG SUPPLY, effective solutions for travel-related concerns and modification of SMOKING and alcohol related behaviors are essential for treatment ADHERENCE.
