This article explains how patients using the WellPD App with the WellPD wearable can log a medication dose, skip a scheduled medication, or log an as-needed dose.
Log a medication dose
You can log a medication dose directly from a reminder notification or from within the app.
Option 1: From the notification
When it is time to take your medication, you will receive a reminder notification on your smartphone.
Tap the reminder notification.
The WellPD App will open automatically.
On the My tasks page, tap Mark as taken.
If you took your medication at a different time than scheduled, tap Edit and enter the actual time you took it. Then tap Confirm.
Otherwise, just tap Confirm.
Once done, the medication entry will be marked as taken, and a confirmation message will appear indicating that the task has been completed.
Option 2: From the WellPD App
If the reminder notification is missed, you can go to the app directly to log a medication.
When a medication is due, the medication pill icon displays a blinking dot.
Open the WellPD App on your smartphone.
On the Home screen, tap the pill icon.
Tap Mark as taken.
If you took your medication at a different time than scheduled, tap Edit and enter the actual time you took it. Then tap Confirm.
Otherwise, just tap Confirm.
Once done, the medication entry will be marked as taken, and a confirmation message will appear indicating that the task has been completed.
Skip a medication
If you do not take a scheduled medication, you can mark it as skipped.
Open the medication reminder from the notification or the medication pill icon.
Tap Skip.
Tap Skip again to confirm.
The medication is recorded as Skipped.
If you accidentally skip a medication, you cannot undo the action. You can still record it as an as-needed dose.
Log an as-needed dose
You can log a medication outside of its scheduled reminder time.
To log an as-needed dose:
Open the WellPD App on your smartphone.
On the Home screen, tap the pill icon.
Select As needed medication.
Select the medication.
Tap Confirm to proceed, or tap Edit to adjust the medication intake time, then tap Confirm.
