Texts and trackers: a new way to boost vitamin use in pregnancy?
NCT ID NCT07555093
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study in Lombok, Indonesia, will test whether digital tools like WhatsApp reminders and a call center can help pregnant women stick to taking daily multiple micronutrient supplements. About 10,012 women will be split into four groups, comparing digital support versus standard care, and bottle versus blister packaging. The goal is to see which combination leads to the highest supplement adherence throughout pregnancy and after birth.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- multiple micronutrient supplementation (MMS)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that simple digital tools and better packaging help more pregnant women take their daily supplements, potentially improving maternal and infant health.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early implementation study in one region, so results may not apply elsewhere. Adherence is measured by self-report and tracking, which may not be fully accurate.
