N Engl J Med 2005;353: Cutler DM, Long G, Berndt ER, et al. The Value of Antihypertensive Drugs: A Perspective on Medical Innovation. Health Aff (Millwood) 2007;26: Thinking Outside the Pillbox. A System-wide Approach to Improving Patient Medication Adherence for Chronic Disease. August Available at

Results Dosing Regimen – Average 6 times/day (SD 1.8) Range 3-14 times/day 30.8% of patients did not take drugs E & F at the same time (despite same directions) 79% of patients did not take drugs A (twice daily) & B (every 12 hours) at the same time.
