1. A system to determine medication adherence, the system comprising:

  • a chemical marker sensor configured to detect one or more markers of a therapeutic agent in sweat vapor of a user;

    a verification sensor configured to detect whether the system is less than a threshold distance from skin;

    a heart-beat sensor configured to detect a manifestation of an expected effect of the therapeutic agent on the user;

    anda processor communicatively coupled to the chemical marker sensor, the verification sensor, and the heart-beat sensor, and configured to calculate a confidence level indicative of whether the user has taken the therapeutic agent based on the chemical marker sensor detecting the one or more markers in the sweat vapor, the verification sensor detecting that the system is less than the threshold distance from skin, and the heart-beat sensor detecting the manifestation of the expected effect of the therapeutic agent on the user.
