Managing your medication list — NaviaCAIR User Guide

Two things in one list

The medication list isn't something you type from scratch. It is built from what your records already say, and then you put your own status on top of it. Those two layers stay separate:

What the records say — medications pulled out of documents you uploaded or imported, plus anything in the Medical Context. Each entry keeps a marker showing where it came from.
What you say — whether you're actually taking it, stopped it, or tried it and stopped. This is yours, and it never edits the underlying record.

Nothing you do here rewrites a document, and the original listing stays visible. You're annotating, not correcting the source.

Medications · across all care

A schematic of the combined view with invented medications. The marker on each row shows where the entry came from; the pill on the right is the status you set.

Where you'll find it

Inside a care event, in the Care Plan, under Medications. This is where you set status — everything is recorded against that care event.
Across all care, at app.naviacair.com/my-medications, which gathers every medication from every care event into one list with its source and current status. It's the overview; the editing still happens per care event.

Because status is stored per care event, the same medication can carry a status in one event and none in another. The combined view resolves that for you: if you've marked something stopped or tried anywhere, that's what shows.

The three states

Each medication carries exactly one of three, and they're mutually exclusive — picking one replaces whatever was there. There is no separate “confirm” button: choosing Taking is the confirmation.

The three shipped states, what each one means, and what it tells the CAIR Agent. Names shown are the labels on the control itself.
Status	What it means	Extra detail you can add
Taking	You're on it now.	Dose, frequency, the date you started.
Stopped	You were on it and no longer are.	Dose, frequency, the date you stopped.
Tried	You took it and came off it — the one that carries a note about how it went.	A free-text reaction note, plus the same dose and date fields.

Before you touch anything

Entries start with a sensible guess rather than a blank: medications the analysis read as current show as Taking, and ones it read as past show as Stopped. That's a display default, not something you said. It only becomes your answer once you set it yourself — which is exactly why going through the list once is worth the few minutes.

Setting a status

Open the care event and find Medications

Open the care event, go to its Care Plan, and scroll to Medications. The intro line tells you what it's for: “Confirm what you're taking. Mark anything you stopped, or ‘Tried’ to note a reaction.”

Pick one of the three

Each medication has a three-way control. Tap Taking, Stopped or Tried. There's no save button and no confirmation dialog — the choice is stored as you make it, and picking a different one simply replaces it.

Medications

Confirm what you're taking. Mark anything you stopped, or “Tried” to note a reaction.

The three-way control, with “Tried” selected. Only one can be active at a time.

Add a reaction note, if you picked Tried

Choosing Tried opens a free-text box for what happened — “made me dizzy”, “no effect after six weeks”, whatever is true. Write it in your own words; it's read as your account of your experience, not as a diagnosis.

This note is the part the CAIR Agent finds most useful, because it's the piece no document contains.

Correct the dose, frequency or dates

If the record's dose or frequency doesn't match what you actually take, you can edit both inline, and set the date you started or stopped. These sit alongside the status and, like it, don't alter the document they came from.

Fixing a mistake

Everything here is reversible, because nothing is deleted — you're setting a value, and you can set it again.

Reversible

Picked the wrong status

Pick the right one. The new choice replaces the old immediately; there's no history to unwind and nothing to undo.

Reversible

Wrong dose, frequency or date

Edit the field again, or clear it to fall back to whatever the record said.

Worth knowing

Moving away from “Tried” drops the reaction note

Reaction notes are kept only for medications currently marked Tried. Switch that medication to Taking or Stopped and the note is not retained. If the note matters and the status has changed, copy the text somewhere first, or record it as a note on the care event instead.

Not available

Removing an entry from the list

You can't delete a medication out of the list, because the list is built from your records rather than typed in. Stopped is the way to say “not any more”. If an entry is there because a document is wrong, marking it Stopped is the right move — and worth raising with whoever produced the document.

What this changes for the CAIR Agent

This is the reason the few minutes are worth spending.

The Agent is told what you set — and told to trust it over the paperwork

When you ask the CAIR Agent a question, your medication statuses are gathered up and handed to it along with the records, under a heading that marks them as coming from you. It is explicitly instructed to treat them as more current than the documents, and never to suggest you keep taking something you've marked as stopped.

The lists go across as three groups — what you're currently taking, what you stopped, and what you tried, each “tried” entry carried with your own reaction note attached.

This is assembled fresh each time you ask something, so the next question you ask uses the status you set a minute ago. Nothing needs regenerating and there is no cache to clear.

What it does not reach

Answers you already received don't change. The context is built at the moment you ask, so an earlier reply keeps whatever was true then. If an old answer looks wrong now, ask again rather than re-reading it.
The CAIR Analysis does not read your medication statuses. The analysis is generated from the documents, extracted values and follow-up items in the care event. Marking something stopped will change what the Agent says when you ask, but it will not by itself change the analysis — and regenerating the analysis does not pull the statuses in either.

That's a real gap rather than a subtlety of wording, and it's worth knowing so the two don't appear to contradict each other.

Who can change it

Medication permissions by access level, matching what the app enforces. Everyone who can open the record can read the list; changing it takes the same permission as adding records.
Level	See the list	Set status, notes, doses
You (record owner)	Yes	Yes
Guardian	Yes	Yes
Caregiver	Yes	Yes
Advocate	Yes	No
Viewer	Yes	No

Why that split

Setting a medication status counts as adding to the record, so it needs the same permission as uploading one. That's why a caregiver helping you day to day can keep the list current, while an advocate or viewer — who are there to read and discuss — cannot. Sharing and caregiver privacy covers the levels in full.

What NaviaCAIR does not do

It doesn't change your prescription. Marking something stopped records what you're doing. It sends nothing to a pharmacy, updates no provider's record, and notifies no clinician.
It doesn't tell anyone you've changed something. People with access to the record can see the list, but nothing is pushed to them.
It doesn't reconcile lists between organisations. If two practices list the same medication differently, both entries stay as they are, each with its own source marker. Nothing merges or overrules them.
A reaction note is not a diagnosis. It records what you noticed and when. It is not an allergy record, not a confirmed side effect, and not proof that the medication caused it.
Nothing here is medical advice. Starting, stopping or changing a medication is a decision for you and a qualified health professional — record it here afterwards, not instead.
