Medication Adherence: Commonly Used Definitions Adherence is defined as "the extent to which a person’s behavior coincides with medical or healthadvice", which is very important, for both clinical researchers and physicians, to identify the treat-ment effect of a specific medication(s).
A variety of measures have been developed to calculate the medication adherence. Definitions andmethods to address adherence differ greatly in public literature. Choosing which definition shouldbe determined by overall study goals. This package provides the functions to calculate medicationadherence based on commonly used definitions.

Continuous measure of Medication Acquisition (CMA) was calculated by the days’ supplies ofmedication throughout the study period divided by the number of days from the first dispensationdate up to the patient’s participation completion (study end).
medCMA(df=data,followUpDays=365, digits=2) days of follow up. 365 is the default, 12 month follow up Xiangyang Ye, Pharmacotherapy Outcomes Research Center, University of Utah Steiner, JG and Prochazka, AV.

This is non-adherencerate. The higher CMG, the lower adherence rate.
Continuous measure of Medication Gaps (CMG) was estimated by total number of days in treat-ment gaps (days for which a drug was unavailable) divided by the duration of the time period ofinterest.
The formula is: (Total Days in Study - Total Days’ Supply)/(Total Days in Study) x 100. If numer-ator is negative, it will be set to ’0’.
medCMG(df=data,followUpDays=365, digits=2) days of total study period. 365 is the default, 12 month follow up.

The description of both calculations are as follows: From the first prescription refill to the next prescription refill, a patient can accumulate a surplus ora deficit by either coming to pick up their medicaiton too early (which would show up as a surplus)or too late (which is considered to be a deficit). Future deficits and surpluses are accumulated basedon existing deficits and surpluses.
If a person continuously has deficits or surpluses for each prescription refill period, the deficits orsurpluses are always accumulated into accumulated deficits or surplus categories, respectively. Anold surplus can cancel out a new deficit. If the accumulated surplus is more than the new deficit,the remaining surplus remains an accumulated surplus. If there is an accumulated surplus that pre-cedes a new deficit , but less than the new deficit, the remaining deficit goes to the accumulated gapcategory.
At the end of the observation period, the accumulated gap is divided by the total days between thefirst and last prescription to get the CMG value for each patient. Similarly, the accumulated surplusis divided by the total days between the first and last presciption to get the measure of surplus foreach patient.

Compliance Rate (CR) were computed taking the ratio of the sum of days’ supplies (excluding thelast days’ supply) to the elapsed intervals between the last dispensation date and the first dispensa-tion date.
The formula is: (Total Days’ Supply - Last Days’ Supply)/(Last Dispensation Date - First Dispen-sation Date) x 100.

Continuous Single-interval measure of medication Availability (CSA) was calculated by the days’supply of a medication divided by the number of days in the interval from the dispensation date upto, but not include, the next dispensation date (or the study end).

Days Between Refills (DBR) adherence rate was estimated by comparing patients’ monthly phar-macy refill records to the prescribed regimen documented in their medical records. An assumptionwas made that any extra doses accumulated during the study period were used as needed by thepatients in order to adhere to the prescribed therapy if medication refills were not obtained on time.
The formula is: Adherence Rate = (1-(Days Between Refills - Total Days’ Supply)/(Days BetweenRefills)) x 100.
medDBR(df=data,followUpDays=NA, digits=2) days of follow up. If no follow up days provided, the elapsed interval from thefirst dispensation date to last dispensation date will be used.

Dual Therapy Medication Possession Ratio (DTMPR) were computed taking the ratio of the sumof days’ supplies (devided by 2) to the intervals elapsed between date of first prescription refill andlast prescription refill plus the days’ supply of last refill.
Same as MPR, the ratio alone can’t be combined across patients due to different observation days(denomitor). DTMPR may exceed 100% due to early refills and/or polypharmacy. Very commonly,if DTMPR>100%, it will be truncated to 100%.
