First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study uses a special pillbox that records when people with bipolar disorder take their lithium. Over four weeks, 50 participants will use the pillbox and get weekly phone calls to compare what they remember with what the box recorded. The goal is to see how well people stick to their lithium schedule in real life, not in a controlled lab setting.
