Pill Organizers

Why use a pill organizer?

Often, for people who take regular medication, organizing medicine can be a major drain on energy and time. Not only is there the travel to and from the pharmacy, and coordinating with doctors and pharmacists, remembering when to take each medicine and if you've taken one already or not can be a challenge to keep up with, especially in addition to everything else most people have to keep track of on a daily basis.

This is where a pill organizer case can come in handy. Especially for people who take multiple pills multiple times a day, daily and weekly pill organizers can be a life-saver, not only for getting rid of the stress of having to keep track of pills, but also by promoting better health through ensuring your medicine is always taken in the right dose.

For people with mental health concerns, this can be even more important, as these patients are more likely to be at risk for forgetting to take a pill, or taking pills twice because they couldn't remember if they took them or not. This can cause serious health risks, especially if done often, and pill organizers are a great way to avoid these risks.

Finally, travel can be a major concern for people taking medicine regularly. Pill bottles are large, cumbersome, difficult to pack, and there's always the worry of losing one and then being out your entire supply either for the rest of the trip or for the rest of the month. Organizers are the best way to not only ensure you get your recommended dose of all your medicine, but will also make packing easier. 

What kinds of pill organizers are there?

Pill organizers come in a range of models, offering a vast selection of tools for every user's needs. Each organizer is different, so it's important that you consider the options available before selecting one. 

Pill Box

Pill boxes allow you to easily carry medicine along with you in a purse or bag. These tools are great for people who need medication occasionally, or who only need to take one type of medication every day. Usually featuring a single compartment, pillboxes simply provide a smaller, more discreet alternative to carrying pill bottles along with you.

Daily Organizer

A daily pill organizer offers one or more compartments that allow you to organize all the medication you need for one day in a single container. This is a great way to keep pills organized and make it easier to know if you have or haven't taken your medication yet. Some of these cases even have alarms that help remind you to take medicine if you haven't yet.

Weekly Organizer

For people looking for even more convenience, weekly pill organizers are the best choice. These cases are available in both one-time-a-day and multiple-time-a-day styles depending on how your medicines are divided and what you find most convenient. And, the organizers are usually fairly compact, definitely not as large as a big bag of pill bottles, so they're great for travel.

Monthly Organizer

Mostly used by people who take medications only once a day, monthly organizers feature 31 individual compartments designed to separate pills for each day in the month. These can be really great for people who don't take pills every day, or who take pills as just one time every day.
