Abstract

In this article, I introduce the medadhere command, which computes medication adherence rates for two commonly used measures in research and practice: the medication possession ratio and the proportion of days covered. medadhere computes adherence rates for a single medication or multiple medica- tions, and its options provide great flexibility to support the specific needs of the user.
