Abstract

Every person living with HIV/AIDS is expected to take medication more than three times a month, with the number of ARV drugs that must be taken being 60 times. Non-adherence in taking ARV drugs can cause resistance effects, so the drugs will not be effective. Several factors affect patient compliance in undergoing antiretroviral therapy (ARV). This study aimed to analyze the determinants of adherence to ARV drugs in patients with HIV/AIDS in Jambi City. This study is an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional approach. Sampling using purposive sampling. The sample in this study was 235 people with HIV/AIDS who were taking ARV therapy. The results of this study indicated that respondents' knowledge, action, and family support were related to adherence to ARV. Meanwhile, attitude, age, sex, education, and length of treatment were not associated with adherence to ARV. Health facilities are confounding in the relationship between attitudes, knowledge, and actions with ARV drug adherence in PLWHA. A sustainable HIV/AIDS control program is important for public awareness or socialization about the need for support for PLWHA to comply with ARV consumption. Keywords: Adherence, Antiretroviral Therapy, HIV/AIDS
