  • A MyCite Patch (to wear on your skin) that detects a signal from the sensor in the tablet after you take it, and sends this information to a smartphone.

  • A Mycite App (a smartphone app) that records when you took the tablet, and tracks information about your activity, sleep, and mood.

  • An online portal to share information from the MyCite App with your healthcare providers.

The Mycite Patch usually detects a tablet within 30 minutes after you take it. If the tablet is not detected, do not repeat the dose.

It may take up to 2 hours or longer for the smartphone app and online portal to detect that you've taken a tablet.
