Summary
This study looks at whether a special electronic pill bottle (AdhereTech) can accurately track how often teens with sickle cell disease take their medication, hydroxyurea. About 36 teens aged 12 to 17 will use the bottle for two months. Researchers will compare the bottle's data to reports from teens and parents, pill counts, and lab results to see if it's a reliable tool.
