# How to track medications and supplements

Open your pet's Care & Info tab, tap the + button on the Medications & Supplements card, and enter the name and details. Then tap the medication to set reminder times with Add Time and Save.

Keep track of your pet's medications and supplements, set a reminder for each dose, and see when each one was last given.
Everything is on the **Medications & Supplements** card on your pet's **Care & Info** tab.

## Turn on medications or supplements

The card only appears when **Medication** or **Supplement** is turned on for your pet.

1. Tap your pet on the main screen.
2. Open the **Settings** tab.
3. Turn on **Medication**, **Supplement**, or both.

## Add a medication or supplement

1. Open the **Care & Info** tab.
2. On the **Medications & Supplements** card, tap the **+** button.
3. If both are turned on, choose **Medication** or **Supplement** under **What would you like to add?**.
4. Enter the **Name**, and the **Default Amount**, **Unit** and **Frequency** if you like.
5. Tap **Done**.

If you already added a medication with the same name for another pet, the app opens that one instead of making a copy.
Its dose applies to every pet that uses it.

## Set reminder times

1. Tap the medication on the card.
2. Under **Reminder Times**, tap **Add Time**.
3. Choose how often and at what time, then tap **Save**.
4. Repeat for each dose, for example one time for the morning dose and one for the evening dose.

If the frequency is twice or three times a day, the sheet shows how many times you've set, for example "1 of 2 times set".
The reminder names the medication and its dose.

## Pause a reminder

1. Tap the medication on the card.
2. Turn off the switch next to a reminder time.

The time is shown as **Paused** until you turn it back on.
You can only pause reminders you created.

## Log a dose

1. Tap the medication on the card.
2. Tap **Log Dose Now**.
3. Check the time, then save the entry.

The card then shows when it was last given, for example "Last given 2 hours ago".
If no dose was logged in the last 60 days, it shows **Not logged in the last 60 days**.

## Edit or remove a medication

1. Tap the medication on the card.
2. Tap the pencil icon to change its name, dose or notes.
3. To remove it, tap **Delete**.

When you remove a medication, its reminder times are deleted too.

## Premium

Adding medications and setting reminder times are part of Premium.
Without Premium, you can still see the card, and tapping it shows how to upgrade.
See [What's free and what's in Premium](https://www.kidplay.ai/help/doggy-time-premium-features).

You can also ask the Assistant whether any doses were missed.
See [How to use the Assistant](https://www.kidplay.ai/help/how-to-use-the-assistant).
