Benefits of Adherence Packaging for Clinical Trials

Properly selected, well-designed adherence packaging has a positive effect on patient adherence in clinical trials. It encourages better behavior, helping eliminate double-dosing or omission of dosing, and overall, can help provide better clinical trial results.  Greater patient adherence in a clinical trial often results in enhanced statistical power. With greater statistical power, patient populations can be reduced, which is a strong driver for more effective clinical packaging.

Our customizable pharmaceutical adherence packaging can help improve patient compliance. Many of our products are available in unit dose packs with inserts, integrated printable panels for dosing schedules and instructions, and are child-safe and senior-friendly. Some products, such as our Cerepak® “smart” adherence packaging, include technologies that capture compliance data previously unattainable in clinical trials with reasonable accuracy.
