This randomized controlled trial assessed the impact of psychotherapy treatment (Common Elements Treatment Approach [CETA]) on hypertension and diabetes mellitus medication adherence (primary) and mental and physical health outcomes (secondary) among displaced Myanmar adults with poor medication adherence in a Thai shelter community. Treatment participants received weekly CETA for 4\u201312\u00a0weeks; comparison participants had access to routine psychosocial support. Eligible participants were chronic disease patients with &lt;70% medication adherence over prior month. Data were collected at baseline, 3 and 6 months. Of 650 adults screened, 283 (43.5%) met eligibility criteria and 224 consented (CETA n\u00a0=\u00a0112, comparison n\u00a0=\u00a0112) to participate; 73 (32.6%) reported elevated mental health symptoms. At 6-month follow-up, medication adherence improved in both arms, with greater improvements among CETA participants (MARS-5: 0.55, 95% CI: 0.07 to 1.02, p\u00a0=\u00a00.023). CETA significantly reduced mental health symptoms among those with elevated symptoms at baseline (\u22123.06, 95% CI: \u22125.19 to \u22120.93, p\u00a0=\u00a00.005). The high rate of mental health symptoms and the impact of CETA on NCD medication adherence supports integration of mental health services into NCD care systems.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/gmh.2026.10225","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,26]],"date-time":"2026-05-26T13:32:46Z","timestamp":1779802366000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Effectiveness
