Ziad S. Al Rawi, Nada Abdulla Mohammed, Humam Abdulrahman Ibrahim
Abstract: This study explores factors affecting medication adherence in Iraqi female patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Using a cross - sectional design, 101 patients completed surveys including the Arabic version of the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS - 8). Findings revealed an adherence rate of 47.52%, with younger age (?30 years), low socioeconomic status, illiteracy, short disease duration, and side effects identified as significant predictors of non - adherence. These results highlight critical areas for intervention to improve adherence and patient outcomes.
