Taking your medication as prescribed is easier said than done.

(A pencil is writing on a prescription pad.)

It’s simple to miss or skip a dose

(We see a calendar.)

or to take it at the wrong time of day.

(We see an alarm clock.)

Maybe you forget to pick up your refill on time

(We see a pill bottle’s content quickly running out.)

or maybe you’re feeling better

(A brown haired woman with her hands joined in front of her is smiling.)

so you don’t see the point of continuing your prescription.

But is that really a big deal? It can be.

Inconsistency with medication (like skipping a dose) means your condition is not as managed as well as it could be.

(We see an orange heart surrounded by a blue gear, which is linked to a black arm. A screwdriver works on the gear, while a wrench is working on the arm.)

And your health and quality of life can suffer.

(We see a graphic showing a descending line.)

Be sure to take the medication in the right amount at the right time and for the right length of time.

Otherwise it can lead to worsening of your condition or possible complications.

If you’re unsure talk to your pharmacist or physician.

(We see a woman with a benevolent smile, wearing a white doctor’s coat.)

(When clicking on the icon, the patient can look up the status of his prescription for Nexium (20mg). He can also set a reminder and manage his medication.)

and monitor when your prescription needs a refill.

It gives you one less thing to worry about.
