ADHD
An ADHD medication reminder that answers "did I take it?"
With ADHD, the hard part is often remembering whether you already took today's dose. DoseMed reminds you at a set time, logs the dose with one tap from the notification, and shows today's doses on a Home Screen widget, so you can check instead of guessing. Refill alerts warn before you run out.

Features that help
The double-dose problem
Taking medication is a routine, and routines are easy to do on autopilot. An hour later it can be genuinely hard to remember whether today's dose happened. Guessing wrong either way is a problem, which is why logging matters as much as the reminder.
A record you can trust
Every dose you mark as taken is logged with the time. The Schedule screen and widgets show what's done today, and the progress view shows your streak. If you need to share your history with your doctor, export it as a CSV file.
Before you run out
Stimulant prescriptions often can't be refilled early. Enter your pill count and DoseMed shows a low-stock alert in time to contact your prescriber or pharmacy.
What DoseMed does not do
- DoseMed does not decide when or how much to take. Follow your prescriber's instructions.
- There is no Apple Watch app.
Frequently asked questions
How do I stop forgetting whether I took my ADHD medication?
Log it the moment you take it. In DoseMed you tap Taken on the reminder notification, and the Home Screen widget then shows the dose as done, so you can check later instead of relying on memory.
Can a reminder app break through Focus or Do Not Disturb?
Yes, if it supports Critical Alerts and you allow them. DoseMed's Critical Alerts are optional and can sound even when a Focus is on or the phone is muted.
