Yes, this may often be the case when patients don't have obvious symptoms for the diseases, such as glaucoma eye drops, blood pressure, etc where many patients dislike the idea of taking medications where they may experience side effects without feeling apparent benefit "for life." This feeling of dependency may increase a non-compliant attitude towards taking medications. Also, many patients with mental disorders may resist taking necessary medications if they do not accept the actual diagnosis (feeling it may stigmatize them). Those with a manic disorder often claim they feel better being manic than when they take medication therapy. A patient who represents a threat to his or public safety my have legal sanctions placed against them which may require hospitalization and the requirement for meds to be taken under supervision.
