Understanding non-compliance with treatment in adults with cystic fibrosis.

The majority of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) now survive into adult life1. This improved survival has been attributed to advances in the medical management of the disease. However, they rely upon the input of a life-long complex programme of self-care by the patient. We discuss the requirements and intricacies of the prescribed treatment, the benefits and consequences of that self-care and the patient’s response to recommended treatments in terms of compliance or non-compliance.
