EMMA- If you are a poly-pharmacy patient (i.e. taking 4 or more prescription medications), managing your prescription medications is difficult.

Pill boxes and organizers are often not used correctly and are prone to numerous errors which can lead to adverse drug events and hospital admissions. Only EMMA^® meets the regulatory requirements for Remote Medication Management. Moreover, only EMMA^® can manage the dangerous medications such as narcotics, anti-depressants, sleeping pills and other controlled substances.
