Medication adherence was measured at baseline in Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial.
Twenty-one percent had low, 40% had medium, and 39% had high adherence.
Systolic blood pressure (BP) was <140 in 55%, 140–160 in 37%, and >160 in 9%.
Baseline adherence and systolic BP were weakly associated.
No interaction between adherence and number of antihypertensive medications on systolic BP control.
