Core Tip	Non-adherence is a priority public health concern. In renal transplantation, adherence is crucial to preserve graft functioning. Non-adherence rates of up to 70% of patients, including immediately after transplantation demonstrate the need for early and continued interventions after transplantation to maximise clinical outcomes. To increase the diagnostic accuracy of non-adherence, several measures must be combined. Multiple risk-factors exist. The strategies to foster medication-taking must focus on modifiable risk-factors and be of multidimensional nature. The strategies reported in the literature, some keys to understand non-adherence, and a few intervention studies are reviewed in this paper.
