Actual (reported)HIV infected drug users have greater difficulty adhering to highly active antiretroviral therapy compared to non-drug users. As sustained adherence to highly active antiretroviral therapy is critical to reducing HIV related morbidity, mortality, and reducing the spread of HIV, innovative and potentially sustainable treatment strategies that can optimize the durability of adherence enhancing interventions among drug users is urgently needed. The goal of this study is to further develop and pilot test a smartphone based intervention called HEART (Helping Enhance Adherence to Retroviral therapy using Technology) to HAART, to enhance adherence to HAART among HIV infected drug users.

HEART to HAART intervention is designed to enhance ongoing adherence counseling by providing (1) real time information about medication adherence (using Wisepill device); (2) periodic assessment of medication side effects, depressive symptoms and drug use frequency (as these are linked to poor adherence among drug users) using ecological momentary assessment and (3) tailored education, recommendation and encouragement based on assessments. The participant (using their phone) and their adherence team (using a clinician interface) can jointly track real time changes in adherence increasing the potential for shared decision-making.
