Question Answer
1. Do you ever forget to take your medicine? Yes or No
2. Are you careless at times about taking your medicine? Yes or No
3. If you feel better when taking the medicine, do you sometimes stop
taking it?
Yes or No
4. If you feel worse when you take the medicine, do you sometimes stop
taking it?
Yes or No
Score:
Scoring and Interpretation
• No = 0
• Yes = 1
• Items summed to give range of scores from high adherence to low adherence
0 = high adherence
1-2 = medium adherence
3-4 = low adherence
