Medication Adherence and Coping Strategies in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Conclusions: Age, sex, monthly net income, and disease duration were found to be associated with an increased risk for medication nonadherence among patients with RA. Coping strategies such as active coping, diversion, and self-encouragement were associated with adherence in univariate models, but not when adjusted for demographic and clinical factors.
