简要总结
This study will assess the efficacy of the text messaging (SMS-based) disease management intervention to improve adherence to stimulants in adults with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
Participants in the study will receive customized text messages twice a day, every day, for a duration of 9 months. The text messages will include reminders to adhere to the individualized medication regimen, reminders to call their clinician for a prescription refill followed by reminders to pick up medication from the pharmacy, and educational reminders about ADHD and its treatment.
