How will Hero know if I’m running low on pills?
Updated over a month ago

Running out of medication can be a stressful experience. That's why we've designed our device to provide you with multiple ways of tracking your pill levels to make sure that you never run low.

Our platform estimates your pill levels and alerts you when they're low, both in the app and on the smart dispenser. This way, you can stay on top of your medication supply.

For more granular tracking, you can add the exact pill count when adding or refilling a medication. This will give you an even more accurate estimate of your pill levels and help you plan for when it's time to refill your medication.

As a general rule, you’ll need to refill each medication approximately every 90 days, assuming standard-sized pills. However, refill frequency may vary based on:

✅ Pill size – Larger pills take up more space, reducing capacity.

✅ Dosage frequency – Medications taken multiple times per day will need refilling sooner.

✅ Number of pills per dose – If a single dose requires multiple pills, your supply will deplete faster.
