Weekly Pill Organizer with Compartments Basic Model

Here’s the whole story of how this producer worked for us, really, saved a life and saved my wife’s mental health too. My 79 year old mom-in-law lives in independent living. She was not very independent about taking her medications Though. We had to visit daily to make sure she was taking them. (We can’t afford a service.) Then Covid hit and we couldn’t visit. We would call her twice daily and she would assure us she had taken her meds. She got really sick (not Covid) and started getting dizzy, anxious, headaches, trouble breathing,...all the things. Finally at 2am she called us very ill and my wife made her get her pill minder and tell us how many were empty. None. She hadn’t taken them for a week. She truly thought she had been taking them. We looked at many options. This thing works for her. In the 5 weeks that we have had it she has missed a single dose. It was easy for us to program for morning and evening meds (there’s no way she would have been able to set it up). The alarm grows from quiet to obnoxiously loud, for 5 minutes. The day she’s supposed to take lights up. If she misses, 25 minutes later it goes off again. We were worried she’d turn off the alarm and walk away, but the day still blinks even after she turns the alarm off and won’t stop until she opens the pack. At this time, this works for us, when nothing else has, it’s fairly low tech, easy for family to set up, large enough for her to be able to manipulate, and compared to other devices, inexpensive.

Pill reminder works awesome ! Just a couple things I would change. Instructions are a tad bit vague, just pay attention to the arrows when setting alarms and this dispenser is designed for older people, it would be nice if it had an inset switch that would disable the set buttons. I Would buy again though. Read more

The alert is really nice! And nice that it is for 2x a day Meds. I don’t like it that the individual medicine containers can be removed. This makes it easy for an older adult to lose the small pill container and it is difficult for a 92 year old with dementia to put back in place, hence making it easy to lose or throw away. The individual day containers can be purchased, however kind of a pain to have to replace. Overall a really nice weekly medicine keeper with electronic reminder for elderly people with dementia.

Worked fine but the alarm was not loud enough for an elderly person with hearing loss and dementia. Read more

Keeps my Mom actually reliable at taking her medicine. Keep instructions handy for changing time schedule in the future. Set up requires focus. Quality product. Read more

It was difficult enough to set it up. It has issues with getting it to set time correctly. After testing it for 2 days we set my FIL up with it and explained how it worked. It started malfunctioning just 2 days after we dropped it off. Going off at times when it wasn't set to go off. We had bought 2 of these as my FIL has meds 4 times a day. The one that was to go off in the morning went off in the evening. And the one that was set up with evening meds went off at the wrong time as well. They did the same thing in the morning. This made my FIL to not know which meds he was supposed to take. These meds were for diabetics, dizziness and heart meds. Needless to say, they are going back. DO NOT BUY, NOT WORTH THE MONEY!!

We love this med box. Nice alarm that keeps beeping until the pill is taken. It will pause and snooze for a while and then resume on its own. So it’s impossible to ignore. Our only issue was that it was hard for us to set the alarm. But we called the company phone number included, and the man on the phone patiently talked me through it. Afterwards, we wrote the company phone number with a Sharpie on the bottom of the pill box, in case we need it again. Well worth the investment, because now my teen doesn’t need me to remind her to take her pill. This is not what we use it for, but he man at the company also mentioned that a lot of parents are buying it for their daughters’ birth control pills. Read more

My brother-in-law is recovering from a brain injury. He came home from skilled nursing and lives alone. With standard medicine organizers he couldn’t decipher what day to take. He also was non-compliant without a reminder. The alarm is fantastic and especially the fact that it continues until he takes the meds and hits the button but also the flashing light to show him which day to take is brilliant! He has not missed a dose since we got this and has done multiple days completely on his own. I would recommend this product 100% Read more
