Summary

This study will test an adherence intervention (iTAB-CV) delivered via interactive text messaging which first targets behavioral intent and then adds cues/reminders and reinforcement to form the habit of taking antihypertensives in non-adherent individuals with BD. Thirty eight individuals with BD and HTN being treated with evidence-based antihypertensive agents and mood stabilizing or antipsychotic medications who are non-adherent with their HTN medicine will be enrolled.

This study uses a prospective cohort design with participants serving as their own control. Investigators will test the iTAB-CV intervention quantitatively for feasibility and acceptability as well as for efficacy in increasing adherence to antihypertensives, decreasing systolic blood pressure, and increasing adherence to BD medication.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

iTAB-CV

Stage 1 of the intervention will be introduced. Researchers will conduct an interview in order to customize iTAB-CV for each participant at the baseline session. In the first month, participants will receive alternating daily texts with educational and motivational content and a daily mood rating request to both monitor their mood and to determine adherence to the intervention. In the second stage for the following month, participants will receive daily texts which will include medication reminders, contextual cues, and immediate reinforcement for medication taking behavior in addition to the content from stage 1.
