Abstract
There is limited data on antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence among patients in Eastern Europe, despite the high incidence of HIV infection and the growing number of HIV-infected individuals who are being prescribed ART. We conducted a study to measure rates of adherence to ART and factors associated with non-adherence among patients receiving care at an outpatient HIV clinic in Estonia.
