Intended Use
The ID-Cap Medication Adherence Feedback System consists of a wearable
device for recording of time-stamped ingestion events, including events
signaled by the co-incidence with, or co-ingestion with, the ID-Capsule that
contains an ingestible sensor. When the ID-Capsule is ingested, the ID-Cap
Medication Adherence Feedback System is intended to log, track, and trend
intake times. When co-ingested with medication, the tracking and trending
of intake times may be used as an aid to measure medication adherence.
The ID-Cap Medication Adherence Feedback System enables unattended
data collection for clinical and research applications in the home or clinical
settings.
The patient is an intended operator of the ID-Cap System.
Device Description
The ID-Cap Medication Adherence Feedback System
Your ID-Cap Medication Adherence Feedback System consists of a wearable
ID-Cap Reader, ID-Capsules, and a mobile application. Your ID-Cap Reader
is a pendant that is worn around your neck and collects information from the
ingested ID-Capsules that are taken with your medication. The ingestible
sensor in the ID-Capsule communicates with your ID-Cap Reader after it
5
reaches your stomach. This allows the system to measure the pattern,
WARNING
regularity, and schedule of your medication taking — your medication
adherence. With a simple Bluetooth connection to your mobile device, your
ID-Cap Reader sends your ingestion event data to the ID-Cap mobile
application to help you keep track of how you are taking your medication.
With your permission, this information may be shared with your healthcare
providers to help them improve your health outcomes.
ID-Capsule (Ingestible Sensor Capsule)
The ID-Capsule contains an ingestible sensor called the ID-Tag made of
ingredients that do not easily react with other chemicals and are found in the
food chain. The ingestible sensor communicates with your ID-Cap Reader
after it reaches your stomach. It is powered by your stomach fluid.
Key ingredients of the ingestible ID-Tag that are in human contact include
magnesium, silver chloride, polyimide, and epoxy. The ID-Tag is delivered in
a two-piece gelatin capsule for oral administration. Additional information
about ID-Capsules may be requested from the manufacturer.
DO NOT take an ID-Capsule if you are allergic to
any of its ingredients. Please consult with your
doctor before using.
ID-Cap Reader
Your battery-operated ID-Cap Reader records the time the ingestible sensor
is detected. Information from your ID-Cap Reader will transfer to your
mobile phone regularly and automatically as long as the Reader is paired
with the mobile phone as indicated by a flashing green light on the Reader.

System Operation Overview
Important Information: Use as An Aid to Measure Medication
Adherence
When the ID-Capsule is ingested and the Reader records the time-stamped
ingestion event, the ID-Cap System is intended to log, track and trend
intake times. When co-ingested with medication, the tracking and trending
of intake times may be used as an aid to measure medication adherence.

The ID-Cap System has been designed to provide reliable information that
will help you and your physician get the most out of your medication. Proper
use by patients and their healthcare providers is essential to the
performance and clinical benefit of the ID-Cap System.
Please keep in mind the following while using the ID-Cap System:
• Always take your medication as prescribed by your physician and
recommended by your pharmacist regardless of the status and use of the
ID-Cap System.
• The ID-Cap System has no effect on your medication.
• With your consent, your doctor or pharmacist may be monitoring your
medication use using the ID-Cap System and may contact you regarding the
information received.
• As with all wireless communications, an ingestion event message will
occasionally not be received by the ID-Cap Reader. Do not be concerned if
this happens, and do not change your prescribed medication regimen or
alter your medication use. If you are experiencing problems with your IDCap System, please refer to the Troubleshooting Section of the User Manual
or contact your pharmacist or doctor. With use of the ID-Cap Mobile App,
you can manually record ingestion events that were not captured by the IDCap System and report missed or skipped doses.
The ID-Cap System should not be used as the sole basis for medication
treatment decisions. Detection accuracy is less than 100%. Patients
instructed by a doctor to take the ID-Capsule with medication may
selectively adhere to one or the other. Therefore, ingestible event data
should be interpreted with caution. Patients should discuss medicationtaking history with their doctor prior to making medication changes.
Conditions of Use
User Groups
There are two distinct user groups based on their potential use of the ID-Cap
System: Patient Users and Clinician Users. Patient Users include individuals
for whom a monitored medication is prescribed and who utilize the ID-Cap
System to capture ingestion events. The intended user population of patients
includes adults 18 years of age and older across a wide range of diverse
9
demographics and medical conditions who are taking an oral medication that
will be monitored.
The user group of Clinician Users include healthcare providers such as
pharmacists, nurses, clinical case managers, and physicians, who will be
involved in the monitoring of patient adherence to medication regimens and
who may facilitate use of the ID-Cap System. Based on their education and
experience, Clinician Users have been trained to care for patients, manage
medication use, and interpret information regarding adherence to prescribed
therapy.
