You can dispense medication on an as-needed basis with Hero. When you add a new medication, the Hero app gives you the option to schedule it or set it as an "as-needed" pill.

Watch our video tutorial on how this works:

Dispensing an On-Demand Dose

  1. Dispense Medication

    • Go to the Main menu on your Hero device.

    • Press "Dispense."

    • Select "Medication."

    • Choose the medication name you wish to dispense.

    • Specify the number of pills you need.

  2. Adjust On-Demand Limits

    • To limit or adjust the number of on-demand pills you can dispense, open the Hero app.

    • Go to the "Meds" tab.

    • Select the medication you wish to edit.

    • Scroll down through the medication details.

    • Tap on "Max on-demand pills per day."

    • Use the plus and minus signs to increase or decrease the number.

    • Tap "Set" to apply the changes.

Your Hero will automatically apply the new settings.
