Adherence to HIV antiretroviral therapy (ART) is a critical determinant of HIV‐1 RNA viral suppression and health outcomes. It is generally accepted that HIV‐related stigma is correlated with factors that may undermine ART adherence, but its relationship with ART adherence itself is not well established. We therefore undertook this review to systematically assess the relationship between HIV‐related stigma and ART adherence.
