Summary

HU is an FDA approved medication for the treatment of SCD. Many studies have shown that HU can reduce SCD related symptoms, but only 50% of patients take it as often as they should. This limits how much HU can help reduce SCD symptoms.

Researchers are interested to see if electronic directly observed therapy (Mobile DOT), a program that uses cell phone reminder messages, videos, feedback messages, and incentives will help patients with SCD take HU as prescribed.
