Arthritis app aims to boost drug safety skills
NCT ID NCT07460739
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a smartphone app can help people with rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis, or psoriatic arthritis learn how to use their anti-rheumatic drugs more safely. About 144 adults will either use the app or receive standard care with a website. The goal is to see if the app improves safety skills and medication adherence over six months.
