Medicine Dose Timer

For most medications: take it as soon as you remember, unless it is almost time for your next dose. In that case, skip the missed dose and take the next one at the scheduled time. Never double up on a dose. Rules vary by medication — check your prescription or ask your pharmacist.

You can use it to track any medicine, but paediatric dosing must be determined by a doctor or paediatrician based on the child's weight and age. Never use adult doses for children.

For adults: 500–1000 mg per dose, maximum 4000 mg per day (8 tablets of 500 mg). Space doses at least 4 hours apart. Doses above 4000 mg/day can cause serious liver damage. For regular alcohol users, the maximum is lower — consult a pharmacist.

Antibiotics must maintain a consistent blood level to effectively kill bacteria. Irregular dosing creates periods where drug levels drop below the minimum inhibitory concentration, allowing bacteria to survive and develop resistance. Complete the full course even if you feel better.
