direct ref: medication adherence measures an overview
The analysis of the medication in blood or the monitoring of the level of metabolites in blood, plasma or serum, depending on the time of blood extraction and the last ingestion of the medication, is a direct proof of the taking of medication. Like any measure, it has certain limitations: it can be used only in certain types of drugs that can be metabolized and subsequently excreted; the pharmacokinetics of the drug must be known; it is a static measure; the method of analysis must be standardized; and the interpretation of the data must take into account each individual, since different patients have different metabolisms and variability in excretion.
