Adherence
Higher socioeconomic status and non-smoking status are significantly associated with higher adherence to liraglutide treatment.
Patients with higher income/education levels and those who do not smoke are more likely to adhere to their liraglutide prescription. Addressing financial barriers and supporting smoking cessation may improve adherence rates.
