“…For example, Abilify MyCite, a recent technology aimed at overcoming some of the problems of lack of insight, medication compliance, and decision-making capacity, has been explored. Klein et al (2021) conducted a cross-sectional study to identify the effectiveness of human technologies that are used to affect the human psyche [35]. ABILIFY MYCITE is a prescribed aripiprazole tablet with an ingestible event marker (IEM) sensor designed to treat schizophrenia, bipolar disease alone or with lithium or valproate, acute or short-term treatment of anxiety or manic symptoms, palliative care, and treatment of depression.…”

Lack of insight typically complicates psychiatric presentations, necessitating careful thought and planning to choose the best course of treatment. Exploring methods of medication administration techniques in the context of a lack of insight is crucial to achieving the ultimate goal of overcoming the insight barrier as rapidly as possible, which will result in therapeutic benefit. This study's objective was to systematically review the evidence on medication administration techniques in a backdrop of lack of insight and how that evidence was curated in the scientific literature. This study used the literature search strategy, which entails retrieving and analyzing the existing scientific literature pertinent to medication administration techniques for individuals with no insight between 2010 and 2022. Accessing online databases, such as PubMed, Google Scholar, and Medline was utilized in this study's literature search strategy. In our findings, in the primary evidence search, no randomized control trial (RCT) comparing the various models of medication administration with a lack of insight was found. No study provided data on the superiority of utility, quality of life, or efficacy outcome. Some 17 scientific papers were identified that cited various trials about lack of insight and medication use and met the inclusion criteria. We concluded that it could be challenging to administer medication to patients who lack insight.Nonetheless, progress has been made to mitigate this obstacle. Common moral values, common sense, medicolegal support, person-centered integrated care, and cutting-edge medication techniques may play a role. However, these models of medication administration are still evolving, along with the ethical concerns accompanying them. Hopefully, the available models discussed in this analysis will serve as a foundation for future developments. Nonetheless, much remains to be done. We encourage contemporary research to investigate safer and more dynamic methods that can alleviate this condition.

“…This may be a big step forward in medication technology. These new methods produce customized dosage forms with variable geometry and dimensions [ 35 - 36 ]. These developments open up fresh avenues for investigating how to get around the intricate connection between medication administration and lack of insight.…”
