Understanding strategies to improve medication adherence among persons with type 2 diabetes: A scoping review
Authors' conclusion
The findings from this review identify BCTs and targeted behaviours with demonstrated success. Further exploration of the myriad of BCTs and the corresponding determinants of behaviour which were not accessed may be warranted for the development of future strategies to improve medication adherence in type 2 diabetes.
