The Accelerator Behind Most Deaths

Medication non-adherence doesn't appear on the CDC's list of leading causes of death.
It's hiding inside almost every one of them.

Medication non-adherence does not appear on the CDC's list of the top ten leading causes of death in America. But it is hiding inside almost every one of them. Heart disease. Stroke. Diabetes. Alzheimer's. Kidney disease. These are not automatic sentences — they are manageable conditions that respond to medication, that stabilize with consistency, that allow people to live full lives.

Medication non-adherence is not a cause of death. It is the accelerator behind most of them. Quality of life is better when you take your pills. It is worse when you don't.

RememberPills.com is free for 6 months. No app. No password. Just your phone number and your email address — and automated reminders arrive every single day. The National Institutes of Health has documented that this simple intervention improves medication adherence by up to 70 percent.

This Is Not a New Problem. It Is a 30-Year Failure.

You See It. Every. Single. Day.
It Is Time to Do Something About It. Now.

353 people will die today. They all have an email and a phone. What is stopping you from fixing this?

129,000 Americans die every year because they did not take their medication. 353 today. 353 tomorrow. 353 the day after that. The clinicians who came before you knew this was happening. They saw it. They documented it. They went home. And 353 people died anyway.

Every clinician before you has watched them die — has watched them end up in the Emergency Room, has watched them have strokes and other catastrophic events. They didn't do anything about it.

Are you going to do something about it — right now, today — or are you going to walk past it like everyone else?

We make no apology for the directness of this message. This problem has gone on for 30 years. People are dying every single day. The tools exist. The solution exists. All it takes is an email and a phone number. The only thing missing is the decision to act.

It's time to create a cause. It's time to join the cause — to stop this problem from happening. This is a 30-year institutional failure. You are part of the institution. The question is whether you are part of the solution.

No more excuses. No more walking past it. Go to RememberPills.com right now and register every patient you think should be getting a reminder. Do it today. Because 353 people are depending on someone finally giving a damn.
