Morning medicine
A skipped dose or the wrong order around breakfast can throw the whole day off. The visual support below shows which pill goes before, after or with food, and makes the sequence clear right at the kitchen table.

About this visual support
Taste in the mouth, water in the glass, and the question of whether the pill goes before or after the sandwich make morning medicine one of the most precise moments of the day. A skipped dose, or one taken at the wrong point in the meal, often shows up hours later in focus, stomach or mood.
The visual schedule breaks the moment into clear steps, so child and adult see the same sequence: fetch the pill organiser, check the day, take the tablet with water, eat breakfast. A useful tip is to place the visual support at the breakfast spot rather than the bathroom shelf, since that is where the timing decision is actually made. Use different cards for before-food and with-food doses so the order does not blur on tired mornings.
If you want to track doses over time, the same steps can be built into the Routined app, where cards combine with time and check-off so a missed morning shows up immediately.
