Living with a chronic condition means managing multiple medications daily. In may cases, managing multiple medications isn't just a simple task. It's a complex daily challenge that includes,
- Taking various medications at different times throughout the day
- Following "Hard-to-remember" schedules like "every other day" or "every two weeks"
- Maintaining specific timing rules like "take 2 hours before meals", "fasting periods before and after med"
- And so much more..
We understand this challenge and designed Pillo specifically for people like you. For those managing intricate medication schedules, Pillo isn't just another reminder app – it's your personal medication scheduling expert.
Here's how we make even the most complex medication routines simple:
1. Various Meds at Different Times Throughout the Day
Coming home from the hospital with multiple prescriptions is a common first step into life with medications.
The situation can be overwhelming, and when this happens, the immediate thoughts are often:"How will I remember all these medications and their schedules?""This medication guide sheet looks so complicated..."
This scenario hits close to home. When my mother faced the same situation, I realized how crucial it was to have a tool like Pillo. We saw the need for a medication reminder that anyone could use easily, regardless of age or tech-savviness – and that's how Pillo was born.
If you're in a situation where you need to take multiple medications at different times daily, Pillo is your essential companion. Relying on memory alone can disrupt your treatment plan. While global studies show medication adherence rates are only around 50%, Pillo users maintain an impressive 92% adherence rate.
2. Beyond Daily Doses
Not all medications follow a simple daily routine. While pharmaceutical companies strive to simplify dosing schedules, many medications require complex timing patterns that can challenge even the most organized people.
Let's look at the different levels of scheduling complexity that Pillo handles effortlessly:
- Case 1: Weekly Medications
- Popular medications like Ozempic or Wegovy
- Once-a-week dosing at the same time
- Case 2: Variable Interval Medications
- Every other day dosing
- Every 6-hour intervals
- Bi-weekly treatments
- Case 3: Cyclic Medications
- Contraceptives (28 days active, 7 days break)
- Medications with built-in rest periods
- Case 4: Extended Interval Medications
- Monthly injections
- Quarterly treatments
- Case 5: Dynamic Pattern Medications
- Different doses for specific days (e.g., Monday, Wednesday, Friday)
- Alternating dose strengths throughout the week
- Step-up or step-down dosing intervals
And believe it or not, some medication schedules are even more complex than these examples. That's why we built Pillo to automatically track and manage these intricate patterns – so you don't have to keep them all in your head.
3. Precise Timing with Meals and Other Medications? No Problem
Some medications require exact timing – not just with the clock, but with meals, other medications, and even your body's conditions. Here's what Pillo helps you manage:
- Fasting Requirements
- Morning thyroid medications before breakfast
- Medications that need an empty stomach
- 2-hour spacing before and after meals
- Meal-Related Timing
- Diabetes medications with food
- Supplements that need to be taken with meals
- Medications that must be taken after eating
- Medication Spacing
- Supplements that can't be taken together

- Insulin doses that change with glucose levels
- Medications that adjust based on symptoms
- Treatments that vary with test results
Pillo coordinates all these complex timing requirements automatically, so you can focus on your day while staying on track with your treatment plan.
4. When Life Doesn't Go As Planned
