Supplements and Medicine List: How to Keep One
A supplements and medicine list is a single page that names everything you take: prescriptions, over-the-counter drugs, vitamins and herbs, with the dose and why. Carry it to every appointment so any clinician can spot interactions quickly.

The idea01
What is a supplements and medicine list?
A supplements and medicine list is a written record of everything you swallow, spread or inject for health. It includes products bought without a prescription.
Federal health sites advise telling every provider about all supplements you use (NCCIH, supplements wisely).
What to write02
What should go on the list?
Write the exact product name, the dose, how often, and the reason for each item. Add start dates.
| Column | Example entry |
|---|---|
| Name as printed | Name and form from the label |
| Amount and timing | As directed on your own bottle |
| Reason | Why you take it |
| Prescriber or source | Who suggested it |
Keeping it current03
How do you keep a supplements and medicine list up to date?
Update the list every time something starts, stops or changes. A stale list can mislead a clinician who relies on it. Cross out stopped items with the date, and add a note when a dose changes.

Who sees it04
Who should see your list?
Show it to your doctor, your pharmacist and any surgeon you meet. Some herbs matter before surgery (EMA/HMPC, Ginkgo monograph).
Keep a copy in your wallet or phone, and print a fresh page before big appointments or trips. Our medicines guide explains common interactions.
Before you buy05
Should a new supplement go on the list before you take it?
Yes, add it as soon as you decide to try it and have a pharmacist look at the list. Carry on with prescribed medicine, and ask your doctor or pharmacist first.
The price shows at checkout. A 60-day window is reported; confirm the live listing.
FAQ06
Medicine list questions
Should vitamins and herbal teas go on a medicine list?
Yes. Vitamins, herbs, teas and powders can all matter for interactions. If you take it on purpose for health, it belongs on the page.
How often should I show my medicine list to my doctor?
At every visit, and whenever something changes. A quick glance at the list takes a minute and can catch problems early.
Is a phone note good enough for a medicine list?
Yes, if you can open it quickly and keep it current. A printed copy in your wallet is a useful backup when a phone is not at hand.
