What goes on a medication schedule

    Morning, noon, evening and bedtime, each with its own color, plus as-needed medicines.

    Exactly as written on the pharmacy label.

  3. Instructions

    With food, before food, do not crush, and anything else on the label.

  4. Tick boxes

    One box per dose, so you can see what has been taken today or this week.

  5. Week of

    The weekly layout has a line for the date, so each sheet covers one week.

  6. Allergies and contacts

    Printed at the top, so they are there when someone else needs them.
