Set up your Medication schedule
StrivePD makes it easy to set up your medication schedule, and will send you reminders to help you stay on track. It will also adjust your schedule when you get off track. StrivePD includes a built-in list of the most common Parkinson’s medications and supplements. And if your medication or supplement isn’t on our list yet, you can easily add it for tracking.
Instructions
- Tap on Settings, and then Medication schedule. Search or select your medication or supplement from the list, then tap on “Add an item.”
- On the next screen, select a dosage, or add your custom dosage. Or skip dosage.
- On the next screen, select the number of pills, or skip this option.
- Next, on the following screen, select how often you take your medication.
- And finally, select the times of day you’ll be taking it.
