Smart pillbox aims to curb opioid crisis after ER visits

NCT ID NCT06592378

Summary

This study is testing a new smart system designed to help control how many opioid pain pills patients use after leaving the emergency room with a broken bone. Half of the 100 participants will use a special locked dispenser and app that provides pills one at a time and includes a mail-back kit for leftovers, while the other half gets pills in a standard bottle. The main goal is to see if this system helps people use fewer pills and safely dispose of extras, which could help prevent misuse and addiction.
