A medication schedule keeps producing small sums: how many days are left in the bottle, what “every eight hours” means in real times, what happens to both when you fly. These four do that arithmetic.

What these are not
None of these tools give medical advice. They do arithmetic on numbers you type in. Anything about which medication to take, whether a dose can move, or what to do about a missed dose belongs with your doctor or pharmacist — and a pharmacist will usually answer it in under a minute on the phone.
If you would rather have the scheduling handled for you, Doz is a free iPhone app that keeps prescriptions, doses and stock counts in one place. There is also a blog covering the habits these tools support.
