%X Sa£¿etak Compliance is a term that indicates to what extent the patient follows the medical instructions. Poor compliance reduces treatment efficiency and the efficiency of the overall health system. Research results vary widely, both for psychiatric patients and other patients. The purpose of this paper is to review available literature on adolescent¡¯s compliance to the psychiatric treatment. There is no indication of differences in adolescent or adult compliance levels, with one exception: adolescent treated for the first psychotic episode cooperate better than adults with the same diagnosis. So far it has not been confirmed that socio-demographic factors affect adolescent¡¯s compliance
