Adherence packs assist patients and caregivers

New study identifies Medicine-On-Time’s packs as effective in helping caregivers and patients administer meds properly, reducing nursing home admissions and costs.

The system includes an outer injection-molded polypropylene frame and an inner blister where pharmacy technicians fill solid-dose medications customized for each patient in a polyvinyl chloride sheet with a coated foil-backed paper, along with a combination of computer hardware, software, and assembly tools. MOT’s sales universe includes some 27,000 community or independent pharmacies within the mainland U.S. and Puerto Rico.

According to the company, MOT is in use by independent pharmacies across the U.S., serving approximately 125,000 patients per year. The systems are not sold to retail chain pharmacies, hospitals, or nursing homes, points out Ian Salditch, the company’s chief executive officer.
