NPS app reminder
December 6, 2011
NPS’ Medicines List iPhone app
has been updated and now
features a range of new features
which allow people to schedule in
reminders to prompt them to take
their medicine.
The app also now allows people
to record whether they took their
medicine on time, and if not, why not.
“With the upgrade, your patients
can set reminders to help them take
the right doses of their medicines
at the right time,” said NPS clinical
adviser Dr Danielle Stowasser.
“Health professionals should
encourage their patients to record
information about any possible side
effects of their medicine, and
whether they are taking their
medicine as prescribed,” she added.
Since its initial release mid 2011,
the app has been downloaded
more than 9,000 times.
The upgraded app can be
downloaded at the Apple iTunes
store, and for those with the app
already, the upgraded features will
download to your phone the next time an app update is conducted.
