Pet medication schedule

Using the chart

• Put it where the medicine is. On the fridge or the cabinet door, with a pen nearby.
• Initial every box, every time. When two people share the job, the initials show who gave it and stop a second dose.
• Copy the label exactly. Enter the amount to give, such as "1 tablet" or "0.5 mL", the way it's printed on the bottle. This tool never works out a dose.
• Give it for as long as the label says, even if your pet seems better, unless your vet tells you to stop.
