Development of Mobile Application for Evaluation of Pharmacist-Directed Counselling and Tailored Message Services on Medication Adherence in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Comprehensive Review

Abstract Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remains one of the most prevalent chronic non-communicable diseases worldwide, affecting approximately 589 million adults globally as of 2024. Suboptimal medication adherence is a central challenge in T2DM management, contributing to poor glycaemic outcomes and increased burden of microvascular and macrovascular complications. Pharmacist-directed counselling and mobile health (mHealth) applications represent promising innovative strategies to address this gap. Objective: This review comprehensively examines current evidence on medication adherence in T2DM, the global prevalence and risk factors of T2DM, the role of tailored short message services (SMS) in influencing disease progression, and the sociodemographic and clinical factors that influence pharmacist counselling and mHealth interventions. It further discusses the rationale and framework for developing a mobile application integrating pharmacist-directed counselling and tailored messaging for improving medication adherence in T2DM patients. Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted across PubMed, Scopus, and associated databases, restricting to original research articles and systematic reviews published between 2019 and 2025. Results: Evidence consistently demonstrates that pharmacist-led interventions, particularly when integrated with digital messaging tools and mHealth platforms, significantly improve medication adherence, reduce HbA1c levels, and enhance patient self-management skills. Sociodemographic factors such as age, education, income, and comorbidities substantially influence adherence outcomes. Conclusion: A mobile application combining pharmacist counselling and tailored messaging represents a multifaceted, scalable approach to optimize T2DM management. Future research should focus on robust randomized controlled trials to evaluate the clinical and economic benefits of such integrated digital platforms in diverse populations.
Keywords Type 2 diabetes mellitus, medication adherence; pharmacist counselling, mobile health application, tailored message services, mHealth, glycemic control, SMS intervention.
