How To Set Up Medications and Supplements

Setting up a medication or supplement on Zamplo Research, and then adding it to a Routine allows you to monitor when participants take a medication or supplement.

In this how-to tutorial, learn how to set up, edit and delete medications and supplements in Zamplo Research.

Watch the video below or click here to read the step-by-step guide.

Note: If a medication or supplement is set up, but not added to a routine, you will not be able to monitor the medication or supplement.

You may add medications and supplements to a routine if you want to monitor a participant’s medication and frequency. You may also want to assess the impact these may have on a participant and their health during a trial.

To add a medication or supplement:

Login to your Zamplo Research account
From the dashboard, navigate to the left side of the screen and click the “Study Setup” dropdown
Then click “Medication/Supplement”
To add a new medication, click the “Add New Medication/Supplement” button in the top right
Type the name of the medication/supplement you want to add
1. Use the preset option that appears, make a custom entry, or insert a DIN/NPN
Select the quantity that needs to be taken and the unit that corresponds to the medication/supplement
Select the frequency and time frame that it needs to be taken in
1. If you have a medication or supplement that isn’t taken on a reoccurring basis, you can select “As Needed”
2. If you have a medication or supplement that is taken weekly, you can select “Weekly”
1. If this medication needs to be taken multiple times a day you can set the frequency and select “Daily”
Add any additional information such as instructions for how or when the medication should be taken
1. If the medication is meant to be taken only during a certain time, such as through the duration of the study, you can select the start and end dates here
Add any notes if needed
If you have set up Study Groups, assign the medication/supplement to the specific group, otherwise select "All Participants"
You can view information such as the active ingredients or strength by selecting “Medication/Supplement Information”
