Dad isn’t Remembering To Take His Pills

What Can We Do?

Is Dad Remembering His Pills? Dad needs an Electronic pill box with alarm and timer. First, Dad takes his prescription medications at 8:30 Am & 9:30 PM.  Before, he using an old fashion pillbox.  We set it up for every 7 days (1 week). However, he is at a point that he keeps forgetting.   For example, Dad was taking 3 or 4 days at a time. Again, we tried by putting a AM pill in morning and put PM  pill later that night.

To sum up, when we left the PM in daily pill box he will take all of them.  Finally, Dad started to accuse me of not giving him the right  medications.  Needless to say, this was frustrating and dangerous.

We looked for one that’s had good reports from families that are using them. The dispenser is set with a timer.  At pill time. the box holding that times dose will start to flash.   To sum up, Mom takes the pills in the flashing box.

The visiting nurse brought Mom a Med-Q Electronic pill box with alarm and timer.  The fancy automated medication reminder will flashes and beep at med time.   My sister had been noticing that pills were still in  her old pill box that should have been taken.  Mom said, “I was mixing up the days of the week”.   Finally, we were able to straightened out the problem.  Mom is able to take the pills from the Med-Q.  She know to take the flashing box when the Med-Q is beeping.

Great tool for Dad Remembering His Pills . Great tool for a parent who forgets to take her pills. The flashing light makes it clear which day to take and the alarm repeats until she remembers. Set up was pretty simple.
