DoseGuard is the shared medication tracker built for families with multiple caregivers. When more than one person is giving medicine to a child, miscommunication can lead to missed doses or dangerous double-dosing. DoseGuard eliminates that risk. WHY DOSEGUARD? Coordinating your child's medication schedule across parents, grandparents, babysitters, and daycare providers is stressful. Paper logs get lost. Text messages get buried. Memory fails at 3 AM. DoseGuard gives every caregiver a single, reliable source of truth. KEY FEATURES SHARED CAREGIVER TRACKING Add parents, grandparents, babysitters, and other caregivers. Everyone sees the same medication log in real time. No more guessing whether someone already gave the next dose. DUPLICATE DOSE PREVENTION DoseGuard automatically alerts you if a dose has already been logged within the medication's scheduled interval. This built-in safety check helps prevent accidental double-dosing. MEDICATION MANAGEMENT Add each medication with its name, dosage, frequency, and schedule. Track prescriptions, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and supplements all in one place. CHILD PROFILES Create a profile for each child with their name, date of birth, weight, and allergies. Weight-based dosing information is always at your fingertips. DOSE LOGGING WITH HISTORY Log every dose with a single tap. See who gave it, when, and any notes. Review the complete history anytime to spot patterns or share with your pediatrician. TODAY'S DASHBOARD See your child's next scheduled dose, today's summary, and recent activity at a glance. The dashboard keeps you informed without overwhelming you. SMART REMINDERS Enable notifications to get timely reminders when the next dose is due. Works even when your device is asleep. CAREGIVER ROLES Assign roles like Parent, Grandparent, Babysitter, or Doctor to each caregiver. Know at a glance who is responsible for each dose. ALLERGY TRACKING Record allergies for each child so every caregiver has critical safety information right on their device. DESIGNED FOR FAMILIES DoseGuard was designed from the ground up for the real-world chaos of family life. The interface is clean, simple, and fast because when your child needs medicine, you don't have time to navigate a complicated app. PRIVACY FIRST All data stays on your device. We don't collect, sell, or share your family's health information. Period. IMPORTANT: DoseGuard is a tracking and organizational tool. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment recommendations. Always consult your child's healthcare provider regarding medication decisions.

Turn the current candle recipe into capacity-limited pouring lots with proportional extra mixture and a saved weighing checklist. HOW IT WORKS 1. Open Calculate and tap Plan a pour run. 2. Choose the vessel count, extra mixture and your equipmentβs usable mixture capacity in grams. 3. Build the lots, inspect wax and fragrance weights, mark lots manually weighed, and save or share the run. Recipe calculation, saved recipes, costs and the burn-test laboratory remain available. The laboratory now opens from Calculate so the bottom tabs stay usable. WHAT TO KNOW Supports up to 1,000 vessels. Capacity is user-entered, not a certified equipment limit. Extra mixture scales wax and fragrance together and is not additional vessel fill. The planner blocks loads above its typical wax limit, which can differ from supplier limits. Follow supplier data and burn-test each recipe. A weighing checkmark is not test approval. iPhone and iPad.
