Startup Idea: Medication Tapering Tracking App

Startup idea to develop an application that helps users track the process of tapering off of a prescription medication. The application would enable the user to input their initial dosage, set a taper rate, and log their daily intake. The app would display the progress so far, and estimate time remaining to reach the goal dosage.

Something I thought of recently actually is about how I know someone who is trying to taper off of a prescription medication, but is having trouble keeping track of several aspects. They showed me how they had written down their rate of taper, but something about it is hard for them to keep track of where they are, how much they are going down each day/week, and how much time they have left to reach their goal. I was trying to tell them they could just make a spreadsheet, but don't use excel enough to know how to do it for them.

From what I understand, the goal would be to track subjective success rates on for example, cutting back to 90% vs 80%. Keeping track of how far they have gone and how far they have to go, and tracking intake. (Doctor is apparently not much help unfortunately and doesn't seem to understand where they are coming from. I sort of do, but don't know how to do it myself.
