GlowCaps help people take important medications every day. The Internet-connected caps fit on existing prescription pill bottles and raise medication adherence.  The GlowCap uses light and sound to signal when it is time to take any daily medication. If the bottle is not opened after a few hours, a call reminds the patient. GlowCaps also help with refills by connecting a patient to their pharmacy as pills deplete.  They are different from automated pill dispensers or reminder services because they address each of the root, behavioral causes of non-adherence.
