How to Create a Pill Card 9/12/2010 Use this guide to find out how you can create an easy-to-use “pill card” for your patients, parents, or anyone you know who has a hard time keeping track of their medicines.

Many people have trouble keeping track of their medicines. A pill card is a simple, visual way to show all of the medicines that a person needs to take on a regular basis. Medicines taken “as needed” should not be included on the pill card since they do not follow a regular daily schedule. The pill card uses pictures and simple phrases to show each medicine, its purpose, how much to take, and when to take it. It is easier to understand than the complicated information and instructions that typically come with medicines.
