Overview

Randomized trial evaluates peer-group therapy's effectiveness on medication adherence in diabetes and hypertension patients, suggesting a potential model for rural healthcare improvement.

Key Points

  • Peer-group therapy improves medication adherence among diabetes and hypertension patients, aiming to address nonadherence issues.
  • The study plans to evaluate adherence using the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale, assessing 2880 participants across four districts in India.
  • This multicenter cluster randomized trial aims to implement community-based participatory research to enhance medication adherence over a 12-month period.
  • Findings could support scaling up peer-educator models for chronic disease management in low- and middle-income countries.
