What MyTherapy does well
MyTherapy combines medication reminders with symptom and measurement logging, and it is genuinely good at the health-journal side: mood, symptoms, weight and blood pressure sit alongside the medication schedule, and the reports it produces are easy to hand to a clinician. For someone managing a chronic condition with a stable prescription list, that combination is well judged.
Its model assumes the regimen is set by someone else and your job is to follow it. That assumption is correct far more often than not, and it keeps the app simple.
Where DoseRoutine diverges
DoseRoutine assumes the regimen is being adjusted — by you, with a clinician, or both — and builds around the evidence you need to make those adjustments. Doses are versioned rather than overwritten, so a titration leaves a history you can read against your labs and your notes instead of erasing what you were doing last month.
It also covers the compounds a general health app does not model: reconstituted peptides with per-vial concentrations, injection sites with rotation history, and cycled compounds with defined on and off periods. Interaction checking spans supplements, minerals, hormones and prescriptions together, because that is where the overlaps people actually hit tend to live.
- Dose changes kept as history, not overwritten
- Bloodwork trends charted against protocol changes on the same timeline
- Peptide, TRT and GLP-1 handling built in rather than approximated
- Cross-category interaction checks with the mechanism and source shown
Running both, or moving across
There is nothing wrong with keeping a symptom journal in one place and a protocol tracker in another, and some people do exactly that for a while. The cost is that the two records drift, and the questions you most want answered — did this change help — need both halves on one timeline.
If you decide to move, start with the current protocol rather than back-filling history. A month of consistent logs is more useful than a year of reconstructed ones.
