Objective: To examine patients' use of medication management strategies (e.g., reminders, pill boxes), and to determine how their use influences the relationship between patient characteristics and medication adherence.Methods: Retrospective and cross-sectional study of 434 patients with coronary heart disease, examining both refill adherence and self-reported adherence.Results: The most common strategy for managing refills was seeing a near empty pill bottle (89.9%), and for managing daily medications, it was associating medications with daily events (80.4%).
