Similar to other long-term clinical conditions nonadherence to medications is common in bipolar disorder. It is often under-recognized in clinical practice and greatly under-researched topic in academic psychiatry. Nonadherence to mood stabilizers is in part due to the adverse effects and it is more likely due to certain adverse effects such as weight gain, tremor, and cognitive impairment. Practicing psychiatrists can potentially reduce the nonadherence by vigorous attempts to identify, discuss, and ameliorate these adverse effects.
