New program aims to help seniors take their pills correctly

NCT ID NCT04709640

Summary

This small pilot study tested a new program designed to help older adults living at home manage their multiple medications more safely and independently. Researchers worked with four participants aged 65+ who were taking four or more prescriptions and having trouble sticking to their regimen. The goal was to see if the program was practical and acceptable, and if it could improve their ability to handle their own medications.
