Association between medication adherence and intrapatient variability in tacrolimus concentration among stable kidney transplant recipients

Abstract This study analyzed the association between medication adherence and the intrapatient variability (IPV) of tacrolimus concentrations among kidney transplant recipients through a post hoc analysis of the dataset from a recently conducted randomized controlled trial. Among 138 patients enroll...

There was also no significant correlation between the CV and adherence detected by MEMS (taking adherence, ρ = − 0.067, P = .527; dosing adherence, ρ = − 0.098, P = .352; timing adherence, ρ = − 0.113, P = .284). Similarly, adherence measured by self-report did not significantly affect the IPV (P = .452).
