Medication adherence is one of the most powerful levers in managing chronic conditions — and one of the most frequently broken. The redesigned medication reminder system in Looms is built around the practical reality of how people actually take their medicines.

Exact dose times

Previously, reminders were set by dose slot — morning, afternoon, evening. Now you can specify an exact time for each dose. If your cardiologist prescribes a beta-blocker at 08:00 and a diuretic at 12:00, Looms fires the reminder at precisely those times.

For medications that must be taken with food, you can add a note that appears with the reminder — reducing the chance of a missed dose caused by misremembering the instructions.

Streak tracking

The new streak display shows how many consecutive days you have taken each medication as prescribed. For patients managing long-term conditions, the streak becomes a quiet motivator — and a useful record to share with your doctor at a review appointment.

Smart refill alerts

Based on your prescribed daily dose and the quantity dispensed, Looms now estimates when your supply will run out and sends a refill reminder five days before that date. The alert links directly to your prescription details for easy renewal.
