1 – What is the importance of medication compliance?

Did you know that over 50% of people do not take their regular medications as prescribed by a doctor? Whether you or a loved one takes their medication at the incorrect time, follows the wrong dosage, or forgets about their treatment regimen altogether, the consequences can be significant.

For example, improper medication adherence can result in:

• Higher morbidity and death rates
• Increased risk of hospitalization
• A greater financial burden for the healthcare system
• Serious health complications
• A strained relationship between caregivers and patients

2 – What contributes to poor medication compliance?

At SmartHealthcare.com, we understand that not everyone can manage their medications. This may be due to several factors, such as forgetfulness, complex medication regimens, ongoing mental health issues, or misunderstanding.

Most of these factors can be addressed through an open and clear communication line between the physician, healthcare system, and patient. When people are empowered to get involved in their treatment plan and ask for clarity if they are confused about their medication regimen, they are more likely to take their medications as prescribed.

However, when poor medication adherence continues to persist, smart medication management devices can prove to be effective.

3 – How to improve medication compliance?

Medication management is not a one-person job. Instead, it requires collaboration and involvement from all parties.

To help fill the gaps between multiple healthcare providers and provide greater peace of mind to caregivers and family members, we are proud to offer two medication management devices that can significantly improve medication adherence.

1. The Smart Dispenser is an innovative medication dispenser that automatically coordinates the scheduling of daily pills. It takes the stress out of medication compliance by organizing, scheduling, and dispensing daily medications.
2. The Smart Pill Blister Pack is a prepackaged medication management product that tracks medication intake and activity to help prevent health complications due to non-compliance.
