free worksheet from rox · talktorox.com · not medical advice
the free medication tracker does the same job in your browser and works out the patterns for you. rox is the free ios app behind it: it remembers every entry, reads your apple watch, oura, garmin or amazfit, and builds a summary a doctor can read in a minute.
how to use it
A schedule answers a different question from a list. A list is what you take; a schedule is when, and it is what stops the most common medication error, which is simply not knowing whether you already took a dose.
Tie doses to something you already do rather than to a time. Brushing your teeth or making coffee is a far more reliable cue than an alarm you have learned to dismiss.
01
what is the difference between a medication list and a schedule?
a list records what you take, the dose and what it is for, and is what you hand to a clinician. a schedule lays out when each dose happens across the week so you can tick them off. most people benefit from both.
02
how do i remember to take my medication?
attach each dose to an existing habit, keep the schedule somewhere you already look, and tick doses as you take them. seeing a blank box is a stronger prompt than remembering an alarm.
03
what if i miss a dose?
note it rather than guessing, and follow the advice for that specific medication, which varies a lot. never double up to catch up without checking with your prescriber or pharmacist first.
