ABSTRACT:
A chart is divided into sections representing different times of day and days of the week for providing a space to indicate and document when medication should be taken as well as to indicate if the medication has been taken. A plurality of sets of different distinctively shaped and colored stickers are provided which are clearly visibly distinguishable one set from the other sets. A selected set of stickers is chosen for each medication which is to be taken and the sticker from that set is affixed on the chart on the appropriate day and time as prescribed by the user's doctor. At the same time, the same shaped sticker from that selected set is affixed on the prescription container. By matching the shape of the sticker on the bottle with the shape of the sticker on the chart, the medication to be taken is clearly identified at specific times of the day, and when it is taken a mark is placed in the section of the chart next to the sticker indicating the time and day on which it is taken to provide a permanent record of what medication is taken as well as when. By using a different set of stickers of each type of medication a system is provided for reminding the patient of the type of medication which is to be taken, when it is to be taken as well as providing a permanent record when it is taken.
