Up to 70 % of patients fail to follow prescribed regimens [1], resulting in detrimental health and economic consequences. While existing adherence research often focuses on either the traditional dyadic patient-physician [2,3] or patient-pharmacist relationship [4], the patient-pharmacist-physician triad is often overlooked. In this study, we share insights from a qualitative study that compared the views of the patient-pharmacist-physician triad on prescription non-adherence. Our aim was to juxtapose the views between different healthcare provider groups and patients to capture the important dimensions of the problem of medication nonadherence.
