Is there any data on why people don't take their meds? Do they just forget to take a pill every day, or is it willful noncompliance due either to fear/misinformation or adverse effects? And is the problem typically that the drugs don't work if not taken every day (i.e. missing a day compromises treatment fully) or do the noncompliant tend to just stop taking them outright?
