Background & Overview

Medication nonadherence is a widespread and often overlooked issue that occurs when patients do not take their medications as prescribed. Patients can be nonadherent due to many different reasons, but the result is the same in most cases -- poorer patient health outcomes.

But the blame cannot rest fully on the patient because taking medications and sticking to a prescribed regimen can be difficult! This is especially true for individuals with multiple prescriptions or for those who have a hard time remembering to take their medications on a fixed frequency.

PharmAssist is designed to tackle this problem by providing users with an individualized experience in maintaining their medication regimen. With PharmAssist, users can input their prescribed regimen to their own interactive calendar and view their entire medication schedule at one glance.
