This is called "violation of medication instructions" (also called noncompliance), and when this happens, doctors may misjudge the effectiveness of the medicine. In addition, the patient's condition may worsen because they stopped taking the medicine on their own.

*Some terminology explanations that mention "noncompliance" are listed below.
