Why is it important to track your medication?

• Firstly, I don’t know about you, but my memory isn’t that good anymore. A few minutes after I think I have taken my medication I am not sure if I actually did or not. I once read that pregnancy causes memory loss. I don’t know if that is the reason or if I am just usually preoccupied but these days if I don’t track something then I probably won’t remember it.
• When something is on your mind it bothers you even if you are not aware of it. Remembering that you have taken a pill doesn’t seem like a big deal, but it is just another thing to remember. A thing that can be avoided by keeping a medication log. Your mind should be used to process information not to store it.
• Keeping track of all medication you take will enable your doctor or health professional to ensure that different medications can be safely taken together.
• In case of emergency, health professionals will know exactly what you are used to taking, what time you take it and the dosage.
• Include vitamins and over-the-counter medication in your tracking template as well. You never know when you might need to check what you have taken.
• Often medication has side effects. You might not even realize that a side effect is related. Keeping track of the time that you took a pill, the dosage and a side effect might enable you to confirm that it is indeed caused by the medication.
