It's an option to receive reminders when it is time to take some meds.

Either way, a list will appear on screen of only those meds that should be taken at that time. Once you have taken the meds, press the "Done Taking Meds" button, to close the reminder and to keep it from popping up again, until the next scheduled time.<br /><br />
