alert for medications

[Griff]

My wife just got out of the hospital and she has several meds during the day
and night. Each medication has different frequencies; some for 4 hours, 6
hours, 12 hours and 24 hours. I've created a spreadsheet that has the 'time
taken' and excel figures out the 'next dose' time dependent on each med.
These meds control pain and she is fine if I make sure that they are on time,
but if they are late it's not good.
What I would like is to have the program alarm somehow that a med is due.
Is that possible?

Set them up as appointments in Outlook Calendar?

Sounds like a good solution. I've been searching in the help files for how
to set the 'next dose' column as an appointment in Outlook calendar but
haven't found anything. I would think that is done in Excel,,,,right?

make each pill time in the day a daily recurrence. The 4AM green pill,
the 8AM green pill, the 12PM green pill, the 6AM red pill, the 12PM red
pill, the 6PM red pill,
