Abstract
To the Editor We read the Original Investigation by Thakkar et al1 and the Invited Commentary by Nieuwlaat et al2 in a recent issue of JAMA Internal Medicine with great enthusiasm. Focusing on the second largest unsolved gap in health care and showing promisingly positive effects of short message service (SMS)-based interventions in improving the odds of medication adherence are important aspects of this research.
