Medication Management Apps: Never Miss a Dose Again
Apps and tools to remind you to take medicine, track refills, and stay on schedule.
Apps can remind you to take your medicine on time
Medication apps send alerts, track refills, and can share schedules with family. Here’s how to get started.
Popular medication apps
- Medisafe — Reminders, refill tracking, optional family sharing.
- Mango Health — Reminders and rewards for taking medicine on time.
- MyTherapy — Tracks medications, measurements, and appointments.
- Pharmacy apps — Many chains (CVS, Walgreens) have built-in reminder and refill features.
Using a smart speaker
You can also set voice reminders: “Alexa, remind me to take my morning medicine at 8am every day.” No app needed — just a smart speaker.
What to include in your list
- Medicine name and dose
- Time(s) to take it
- With or without food
- Refill date
Quick tips
- Never change doses based on an app — always follow your doctor’s instructions.
- Some apps let you share with family for extra support.
- Keep your phone volume or vibration on so you don’t miss reminders.
