When your doctor gives you a prescription for a medication, it will also come with specific instructions. The extent to which you follow these instructions is called adherence. When patients take medications as directed, they are improving their chance to achieve optimal health and long-term treatment benefits. At Accord Specialty Pharmacy, we want to help you succeed in completing your treatment plan with complete adherence. This helps you and your healthcare team minimize disease progression, reduce your risk of being hospitalized, and achieve a lower cost of care.
