How to use this guide
Medicines & Supplies Organiser
This organiser keeps one accurate list of everything the person takes, a history of every change, a daily schedule, refills and supplies. It doesn't tell you what to take, or whether to start, stop or change anything.

Common questions
- Where do I start?
- With "Current medicines & supplements". Copy each one exactly from the label or the latest prescription, including vitamins, supplements and things bought from a shop.
- Why keep a timeline as well as the list?
- The timeline records each change with the date and who made it, and nothing is crossed out or overwritten. It helps when someone asks "when did that change, and why?".
- Who can check the list?
- A pharmacist, the GP or the prescribing team. The organiser helps you gather the full picture for them.
- I typed into it, but my answers had gone when I opened it again. Why?
- Some previews, such as a browser tab or an email preview, can't save answers in a form. Download the PDF first, open it in a PDF app that supports forms, such as Adobe Acrobat Reader, then save.
- Is anything I write sent anywhere?
- No. The PDF doesn't send your answers to Keep It Together Care or to anyone else. They stay in the file on your device, or on your paper copy.
