Brace is the family sick day companion: a calm place to keep track when a child is sick at home.
DOSE TIMERS WITH A 24-HOUR COUNT
Never wonder "when was the last Tylenol?" at 2 AM again. Log acetaminophen, ibuprofen, a prescribed antibiotic or any other medicine. For acetaminophen and ibuprofen, Brace counts down the time between doses from the American Academy of Pediatrics charts (every 4 hours for acetaminophen, every 6 hours for ibuprofen) and counts the doses given in the last 24 hours. When the daily maximum is reached (5 doses of acetaminophen, 4 of ibuprofen), it shows when the next dose can be given, and the reminder waits until then. If your product's label says otherwise, follow the label. For any other medicine, follow the interval on its label.
FEVER LOG WITH VISUAL TIMELINE
Plot every temperature reading on a timeline. See the pattern at a glance: when the fever peaks, when medication is working, and when it's trending down. Supports Fahrenheit and Celsius.
SYMPTOM TIMELINE
Log symptoms as they evolve, from "warm forehead, not finishing dinner" on Day 0 to "fever improving, drinking fluids" on Day 3. Build a clear picture of the illness to share with your pediatrician.
SHOULD I CALL THE DOCTOR?
Stop second-guessing yourself at 2 AM. The built-in guide lists emergency red flags, reasons to call your pediatrician today, and what you can watch at home. Not a diagnosis: a guide for when to seek professional care.
SICK DAY LOGISTICS
The checklist every parent forgets in the chaos: call the school, arrange childcare, notify work, check medication supplies, cancel commitments. Check items off as you go.
DOSING REFERENCE
Weight-based amounts from the American Academy of Pediatrics dosing charts, built into the app: acetaminophen 160 mg/5 mL, and ibuprofen as infant drops (50 mg/1.25 mL) or children's liquid (100 mg/5 mL). Choose your product and see the amount in mL with the mg next to it. If your bottle shows another strength, follow its label. Always check the dose on your product's label, and ask your doctor before giving acetaminophen to a child under 2 or ibuprofen to a baby under 6 months.
ILLNESS REFERENCE
Quick reference guides for common childhood illnesses: cold, flu, stomach bug, strep throat, ear infection and RSV. Typical duration, key symptoms, and when to call the doctor.
