Summary

This study will test whether sending reminders by text, email, or secure patient portal messages helps people with heart disease or diabetes refill their statin prescriptions. About 22,000 adults who have not refilled their statin in the last 3 months will receive one of these messages or usual care. Researchers will track who refills within 14 days and may send a second message using a different method if the first one doesn't work.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
behavioral intervention (text messages, secure portal messages, or email reminders)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that simple reminders through existing communication channels improve medication adherence, potentially reducing heart attacks and strokes.
What could go wrong
This is a large but early-stage behavioral study, not a drug trial. Results depend on patient engagement and may not apply to other health systems or populations.
