For those of us who have inflammatory bowel disease, taking medication is a daily fact of life. It's hard to remember all the different meds, their doses, and whether or not you've taken them. It can be annoying for teens (who make up a large segment of people with IBD) because parents are constantly checking up on the medication schedule. Parents and teens can work together to make sure that the meds get taken on time and no one feels frustrated by the schedule.
