Spotting Hidden Medication Nonadherence in Serious Mental Illness
Original: How to Uncover Covert Medication Nonadherence in Serious Mental Illness
Psychiatric Times has published guidance on identifying covert medication nonadherence in patients with serious mental illness. The piece addresses a common clinical challenge: many patients do not disclose that they have stopped taking antipsychotic or other psychiatric medications, which can lead to relapse and hospitalisation. It discusses methods clinicians can use to detect nonadherence, including open questioning, pill counts and observation of symptom patterns.
Why now: Clinicians and mental health professionals are discussing practical strategies for a persistent, often hidden problem in psychiatric care.
