Taking medications correctly is one of the most important things you can do for your health — and one of the easiest to get wrong. Did you take your morning pill? Was that dose yesterday or the day before? JanusMed's Medication Tracking helps you stay on top of every prescription, supplement, and as-needed medication, with clear schedules and honest adherence tracking.
Add Medications from Our Catalog
Search our comprehensive medication database to add your prescriptions. The catalog includes common brand names and generics, with pre-filled information like common strengths and dosage forms. Select your medication, choose the strength your doctor prescribed, and you're ready to set up a schedule. Can't find your medication? Add it manually with a custom name — perfect for compounded medications, supplements, or international brands.
Flexible Scheduling Options
Real medication schedules aren't always simple. JanusMed supports multiple doses per day at specific times (e.g., 8am, 2pm, 8pm), different doses for different times, specific days of the week for weekly medications, and start and end dates for temporary prescriptions. Each schedule includes the dose quantity and unit, so you always know exactly how much to take.

As-Needed Medications
Not every medication follows a schedule. Pain relievers, rescue inhalers, and sleep aids are taken when needed, not at set times. Mark these as 'as-needed' medications — they won't appear in your daily schedule, but you can log doses whenever you take them. This creates a record of usage patterns that's valuable for you and your doctor.
Today's Medications Dashboard
See everything you need to take today in one view. Your dashboard shows scheduled doses organized by time, which doses you've already taken (with checkmarks), any doses you're running late on, and as-needed medications available for quick logging. It's a simple answer to 'what do I need to take right now?'
Quick Dose Logging
Taking your medication? One tap marks it as taken with the current timestamp. Running late? The system knows — it calculates whether you took the dose on time, slightly late, or significantly late. Need to skip a dose? Mark it as skipped and optionally note why (side effects, ran out, doctor's advice, etc.). Every action is logged for your records.
Detailed Logging Options
Sometimes you need more than a quick tap. The detailed logging screen lets you log a dose for a different time (useful when you forget to log immediately), add notes about how you felt or any side effects, and record partial doses when prescribed. This flexibility ensures your medication history accurately reflects what actually happened.
Adherence Calendar
View your medication history month by month with the adherence calendar. Each day is color-coded: green for 100% adherence, yellow for partial, red for missed doses. Tap any day to see exactly what was scheduled, what was taken, and what was missed. It's an honest look at your medication habits over time.
Adherence Statistics
JanusMed calculates your adherence rate automatically — the percentage of scheduled doses you actually took. See your overall adherence across all medications, adherence by individual medication (revealing which ones you struggle with), weekly trends showing if you're improving or slipping, and your current and longest streak of perfect adherence days. These numbers help you have productive conversations with your doctor about what's working and what isn't.
Pause and Resume
Doctor told you to stop a medication temporarily? Traveling and adjusting your schedule? Use the pause feature to suspend a medication without deleting it. Paused medications don't appear in your daily schedule or affect adherence calculations. Resume whenever you're ready, with your full history preserved.
Share with Your Doctor
Your complete medication list and adherence history can be shared with any healthcare provider you authorize. They'll see not just what you're prescribed, but how well you've been taking it. This honesty helps doctors make better decisions about dosage adjustments, medication changes, or additional support you might need.
Pro Tips
- Set up medications right when they're prescribed — don't rely on memory
- Use the notes field to track side effects; this information is gold for your doctor
- Review your adherence weekly and identify patterns in missed doses
- If you consistently miss a specific time, ask your doctor about adjusting the schedule
