First seen Mar 20, 2026 · Last updated Jun 10, 2026 · Updated 10 times

Summary

This study tested whether a habit-building worksheet and a chat with a pharmacist could help people remember to take their new long-term medications for heart disease or depression. Thirty-three adults who were starting a new chronic pill took part. The goal was to see if the worksheet was easy to use and if it helped form stronger pill-taking habits compared to standard pharmacist advice alone.
