Helping pharmacists help their patients.
Medication adherence packaging to improve health outcomes
Medication Made Simple™
We help patients take the right medications at the right time using proven packaging solutions. Why? Because better medication adherence means better health.
We’ve led the medication management market in partnership with pharmacies for over a century. Our advanced blister packs and connected adherence technologies focus on what’s important today: sustainable development, pharmacy automation and patient usability.
One single behavior can have a profound impact on health and well-being, and that’s medication adherence. Put simply, medication adherence means taking the right medications, at the right dose, at the right time.
When medications are not taken properly, patients can experience worsening symptoms and quality of life, and in some cases, hospital visits. If patients don’t follow medication schedules, it’s also difficult for doctors to know if and how treatment is working, and whether to adjust prescriptions.
Considering healthcare systems, the cost of not taking medications properly adds up to a staggering $500 billion each year – that’s half a trillion dollars that could be saved.
What is medication adherence and why is it so important?
The Pillars of Medication Adherence
There are four key elements of medication management programs that work together to help patients adhere to medications consistently.
Understanding everything about medication regimens, potential side effects and what to expect.
Inform & Educate
Coaching and reminders throughout the prescription journey, ensuring it’s easy to confirm that doses are taken.
Remind, Monitor & Motivate
Checking in with care teams to discuss side effects and how medications are working.
Obtain Feedback
Receiving automatic refills and understanding how to dispose of used prescription packaging and remaining medications.
Refill & Dispose

Blister packs are a better option to improve adherence
““We train pharmacists to suggest that blister cards are a really good option when they see someone with multiple prescriptions, or buying plastic pill organizers. Everything is right there for customers. It helps not only with adherence, but also prevents medication errors. And, blister cards are better than having to wrangle seven or eight individual vials.”
