A new smartphone app called Start aims to change that. Developed for people on newly prescribed antidepressants, the app is designed to track and summarize their response to the medication over time so that they can determine whether or not it’s working.
Available for download today on Apple’s App Store, the iOS-only Start is the latest offering from Iodine, a health tech startup that crowdsources reviews of medications for everything from asthma to heartburn. Since its launch last year, Iodine’s founders — one a former executive editor of Wired, the other a former Google engineer who co-developed the company’s flu-tracking software — noticed that a significant number of reviews submitted to the site were for antidepressants.
