TruSense App’s New Medication Tracking Feature Targets the Number One Barrier to Medication Adherence
TruSense takes a decidedly no-nonsense approach to medication scheduling, a point of differentiation over the slew of medication tracking apps currently available, the company says.
"Statistics show us that, by far, the most common reason why people don't take their medications is simple forgetfulness," says TruSense Senior Vice President,
