It would be great if in one of the next Health App updates if they can add a feature in medication reminders to pause and resume a medication.  There are times when one needs to have the medications on their schedule, but needs to pause for a certain amount of time due to illness or surgical preparation.  Being able to just hit pause for some number of days and automatically resume reminders would be helpful to many. The pause should be applicable for individual medications - not just a generic pause all reminders. Right now, the only way to accomplish this is by putting an end date on the medication (to keep it in the list) and then having to remember to change it back.

 

I'm going to also put in feedback to the developers.

I would like that option, at times I have to stop certain meds while still taking some, I take 7 pills in the morning and 4 at night with an insulin, and at times I have to leave off certain pills before surgeries

It's really hard to keep track when you have to stop them and resume them at different times

Yeah.  Some you have to stop taking 10 days before and can't resume for 10 days after, and some you have to stop taking 3 days before and can resume right away.  Some you can't take with other meds, if they prescribe you something if you are ill.

I get confused at times and have had to postpone appointments because I took a pill that I shouldn't have, I have used Samsung for years but in the last few years I started using Samsung Health reminder, before that I just used the alarm but at times, the alarm didn't work
