Adherence to Pulmonary Tuberculosis Medication and Associated Factors Among Adults: A Cross-Sectional Study in the Metinaro and Becora Sub-Districts, Dili, Timor-Leste.

Timor Leste is one of the top countries in Asia with a high incidence rate of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). The success of TB treatment necessitated a more profound comprehension of adherence as a multifaceted behavioral issue, along with identifying the barriers that hinder and the factors that promote patient adherence. This study aimed to assess the rate of pulmonary TB medication adherence and identify its predictors among adults in Metinaro and Becora, Dili, Timor-Leste.
