Additionally, at the end of 3 months, the acceptability of the interventions will be measured among the participants who received either phone call or video.\n\nResearchers will compare the two groups (one group will utilize phone call whereas the other videos) with the control group to see if the mobile interventions improve adherence to medicines.
