This is a very helpful little item for many people who take medication or supplements and travel. I have another pill organizer I use at home that has seven small daily containers for a week's worth sorted by days and time of day, but I needed a more compact way for an almost two-week trip. Two of the organizer I use at home would take up too much space. While this one won't totally work for me (because of the large size and number of my calcium supplements), it would likely work for many people on most trips. It's very well designed and holds more than it appears. There are ten covered sections of differing sizes, and the two halves snap together to take up very little space. it is not designed to sort by days, but to hold each different kind of item in separate sections. One of the smallest sections will easily hold over 14 low-dose coated aspirin and another of the smallest sections will hold over 14 of a medication I take that is small tablets. I also take fairly large eye vitamin soft gels twice a day, and I can use several of the sections to hold those. My four-a-day calcium supplements are too large and too many, however, and the largest sections will only hold five of those each. I'll carry those in a small ziplock instead and use this for the rest. Be aware that some Rx medications are required to be kept in their Rx bottles to pass through TSA or possibly other security. Check to be sure. I did not deduct a star, because its size would have to be much bigger in order to hold all my large calcium supplements. Its compact size and design are what make it such a good travel item, and it probably works for most. Very low cost, too. 5 stars. Read more

If you're on Amazon looking for a travel pill container and you're overwhelmed with the number of options available, stop right here. THIS IS THE ONE YOU WANT. I like this model so much that I've purchased it 3 times. Once for my travel pills, which became my nightly pill organizer and then had to stay at home. Once for keeping a case with me in my daily bag. And once for storing USB dongles in it for my keyboard collection. If that doesn't serve as a testament to how good this case is, well, I don't know what to tell you. I've purchased other types/styles, even one that looked very similar to this except that the compartments weren't translucent, and it was slightly larger. Well, turns out that one doesn't have tabs that are easily accessible for opening the compartments so you either need to use your fingernails to pry them open or use the included guitar pick to open them. That's not convenient - especially if you're travelling and prone to misplacing things. I returned that one because comparatively, it sucked. This case easily holds enough pills for 1-2 weeks of travel (I took it on a 2-week trip to Spain and it held both my nightly meds, as well as additional pain relivers and such), though I did have to take up 2 of the large compartments for my progesterone pills, which are HUGE. The design of this case is brilliant. There is one large tab that holds the 2 halves together, and then each compartment has its own tab that can easily be flipped open. It doesn't take much effort, but they do stay closed very well, so that anyone with joint issues shouldn't have to struggle to open them. When folded up, this takes up virtually no room in a bag or suitcase, and even if your bag is stuffed to the brim, you can certainly find a small pocket somewhere to cram this in. Aside from pills, these are great for storing small items that you want to travel with as well. Necklaces, rings, and earrings, provided they're not too large, can all be stored in compartments and kept save and tangle free. As I mentioned, I'm actually using one of mine to hold USB dongles that would otherwise just be loose in a drawer or rattling around in a sandwich bag. This case has allowed me to keep everything protected and labeled so that I can quickly locate the dongle I'm looking for an access it easily. These are under 5 dollars, and are worth every penny. The other ones I purchased were green and yellow, but the blue one is probably my favorite of all. I like that there are a lot of color options to choose from though, so that you can keep one for each kind of pill, or one for each type of item you're organizing. Truthfully, I'll probably be buying a 4th one of these to hold additional small items when traveling. The utility of these cases are unmatched! Read more
I ordered this pill case for my upcoming cruise. If you take alot of medication with big pill, please do not purchase this small pill case. I like how small it is for packing; however I had to find and old bottle for my Senna. Over all, i would purchase again, my two year old grandson was unable to open which is a huge plus. Read more
I bought this recently for a trip that I was taking to Spain to see my son. I was there 8 days and this container really did the job. I did use my Dymo label maker to make small labels to put on the lids. The upsides? There are ten containers, four large, two medium and four small and they all have latching lids. They all stayed shut perfectly, especially as it folds in half and latches again and it’s not too large. I always kept it in my small backpack that I used as my purse alongside my wallet and passport. The only downside I can think of? If you have a lot of large pills, say potassium, or metformin, or in my case fish oil capsules, it will not be large enough. I put my fish oil caps in tiny zip lock bags. I could not have been happier with this purchase, so sturdy and functional and so inexpensive. Read more
Nice, compact pill container. Does not have labeling for day of the week/time of day, if that is important to you. Has 10 compartments of varying sizes. Read more
Love how compact this is but holds so much. Doesn't take up to much in my purse which makes it very convenient and while traveling also. My husband even had me purchase him one cause guess who has to carry his meds around while traveling. I would recommend to anyone. Read more
