Mobile Telephone Text Messaging for Medication Adherence in Chronic Disease: A Meta-analysis
Jay Thakkar,R. Kurup,Tracey-Lea Laba,Karla Santo,Aravinda Thiagalingam,Anthony Rodgers,Mark Woodward,Julie Redfern,Clara K Chow +8 more
TL;DR: Mobile phone text messaging approximately doubles the odds of medication adherence in adults with chronic disease, and this increase translates into adherence rates improving from 50% to 67.8%, or an absolute increase of 17.8%.
