Socio‐demographic factors do not have a large influence on psoriasis patients’ adherence to topical treatment

Abstract

Topical drugs containing corticosteroids are the most frequently used treatments for mild‐to‐moderate psoriasis, but adherence rates to topical drugs are low and up to 80% of psoriasis patients are classified as non‐adherent, which present a barrier to treatment success.3 Barriers to treatment adherence can be divided into socio‐demographic, healthcare, disease, treatment, and patient‐related factors. In a prospective study by Zaghloul et al., adherence to unspecified topical and systemic antipsoriatic drugs was investigated by counting pills or weighing medication bottles; lower adherence was associated with being single, male, or unemployed.
