MARS – Medication Adherence Rating Scale

The MARS App is designed for use by healthcare professionals only. This App provides a questionnaire for a healthcare professional to answer with their patient to determine willingness and ability to take oral medication every day.

The Medication Adherence Rating Scale (MARS) app is a quick, non-intrusive and simple self-reported measure of medication adherence specifically in psychiatric patients. It is designed to assess both the patients’ attitude towards medication and also actual medication-taking behaviour.
