EziMedPil Automatic Pill Dispenser w/Audio & Visual Alerts, up to 6 Alarms/day, 6 Dosage Templates, Easy-Read LCD Display, Lock Medication Dispenser w/Key for Prescriptions, Vitamins & More, Clear Lid

This is wonderful. It allows us to set my father’s medication for a week without concern of him taking too much or too little, which happened in the past. It beeps when it’s time to take the medication, and he loves it so much easier than a traditional pillowcase and functionally. He doesn’t have to open anything with his arthritic hands. It also has a lock, so he can’t access the medication early. Great all the way around and his caretaker loves it. I highly highly recommend this if you have an elderly parent who is on consistent medication and having a difficult time with that timetable.

We purchased this for managing my father's medications. It was easy to set up and has worked flawlessly. My dad accidentally threw away the box which contained the extra dosage rings, and when we reached out to the company they were very responsive and offered a great solution to get them quickly! Would definitely purchase again if I needed one for my mom.

These work amazing. The alarm can be soft or very loud. I opted for very loud as I wanted to be sure my mom did not miss her timing to take her medications. The proprietary key is great so she could not open the battery compartment or the pill wells to change anything or remove batteries. The small window slides over so she can dump out her pills to take. Turning over the device is what silences the alarm and flashing lights. she claimed the pills did not always come out--I did not encounter this issue; I only encountered her removing pills and not taking all of them. It is definitely good for reminders but no assurance to know if the pills are actually taken without the human element checking still. Batteries lasted for over 6 months before needing replaced. I used as a one time a day alarm and bought multiple devices so we did not have to refill the wells multiple times a month.

Though reasonably priced & should make life a lot easier BUT quality is questionable. My unit was shipped with a defective cover Now there is an 'error' message. If you buy it immediately check hinge. The cover had a little "play" after locking with one side making a "click" after locking. Finally during the weekly fill, I took a closer look to figure out what was causing the "click" and it was the left side hinge popping in and out; I pressed the "open" cover button but, cover remained locked. Despite contacting seller via email NO RESPONSE! Then the return window closed. Don't do it!

My wife takes several different kinds of pills/vitamins twice a day; once in the morning and once before bed. It became such a routine, and sometimes she was so tired in the morning or evening she would accidentally take the wrong pills, forget to take her pills, or take them twice. When that happened, it would have an extremely negative effect on her quality of life. After one recent week where the wrong medicine was take 4 times, I thought there must be a better solution out there! I found this, and several extremely similar products. This one was a lot cheaper than one of the other leading brands. I bought this one based on the lower price but was honestly surprised at the quality of the product and packaging. Everything feels very solid and high quality. Setting it up was easy, using the included instructions. Don't lose it because you may not be able to figure out how to change the clock and scheduled without it, it is not very intuitive. In our house, we don't use the audible alarm so I have it set to mute, but the beep is pretty loud. It is a very high-pitched beep, though, so someone with hearing loss might not be able to hear it. In our case, she doesn't need a reminder, but the fact that only the correct dose is available in the chamber at any given time has completely eliminated the problem of taking the wrong meds or taking it twice. She has forgotten a couple times, but even then at least we're able to see that and verify what happened and when it happened. To dispense the pills, you need to lift the entire unit upside-down and shake the pills out which can be a little awkward. A couple of times she missed one of the very tiny pills that didn't shake out and was not visible without standing over the hole and looking straight down into it. With my wife taking 2 doses daily, this machine holds a 2-week supply. It includes labeled "wheels" for different kinds of schedules. Overall I have no complaints, it has been well worth the money to reduce her suffering and simplify her daily routine!

My mom has some memory issues and it started to be challegining for her and us to keep the track of the medicines she must take, she was either taking double doses, not taking them at all or sometimes taking them some hours later than she should. Due to that, I started calling her on a daily basis at the time she had to get her pills but it was just as frustrating as stressful and nothing seemed to work properly until I found this device. It literally changed our lifes for good, it works perfectly, the alarm goes off at the correct time without missing a dose. The way this device is designed makes sure the person actually takes their medicines: it rotates delivering the pills at the right time without any room to fail, the person just have remove them from the dispenser by putting the device straight up, thats the only way the alarm turns off which is great because it reasures the mechanism. The only aspect that could be improved is the alarm volume that is a bit low at least for my mom but she has major hearing limitations, however she is by now, already well used to wait for her medicines and take them from it. It has given me the freedom and tranquility that I had lost before.

What I like about this one is that it reminds me exactly when I'm supposed to take my meds at the right time so I don't forget or skip any of the vitamins or ibuprofen. Not hard to use but if you take more than four sets of meds a day (four different time frames) ,you're not going to get a 7-day period to load for. That's the most days you can do it for more sets a day but it just won't come out to 7 days worth. It'll be maybe 3 days or 4 days . Comes with an easy to use lock on the bottom. You turn it over to empty your meds into the palm of your hand or on a table top whichever you choose. By inverting it to pour it into your hand that silences the alarm. I did not find any of it difficult whatsoever . READ THE INSTRUCTIONS IT'S BASICALLY LIKE SETTING ONE OF THOSE NEW DIGITAL WATCHES THAT YOU GET YOU KNOW YOU HAVE A CERTAIN BUTTONS THAT SET CERTAIN THINGS DO IT EXACTLY AS THE LITTLE BOOKLET SAYS READ THE LITTLE BOOKLET FIRST DON'T TOUCH EVERYTHING AND PLAY WITH STUFF READ THE LITTLE BOOKLET FIRST THEN IT WILL MAKE SENSE. Comes with kí thedifferent little paper rings so if you take four sets of meds a day you CAN load it for 7 days because there is a total of 28 slots. What changes is the little paper ring that you put down on it they give you several whichever one matches YOUR situation within 28 slots . If I had to take a lot of meds say over eight different sets then I would just buy another one of the same model here because it's one of the best ones I've used so far nothing falls out on the floor or gets lodged so far. Heads up to people who have large fingers or thick fingers you would have a very hard time getting down into these little individual med slots but you really don't have to since you're just dropping them in from above it into the slot and then turning the whole thing over when you're dispensing the ( after it's of course closed and locked) and it has rotated the next slot over, then YOU slide the little window open and turn over the entire little machine into your hand and pour them into your hand or on a table top. if you have somebody who's not terribly coordinated or doesn't do well holding on to bigger things that could be a problem for them. This one hurts my fingers the least I have no cognition problems I just keep forgetting to take my second set of ibuprofen and potassium, D3 etc.

This product has worked wonders for us. My mother in law can never remember if she’s taken medicine, when she took medicine or any of that. We set it for day 1, load it for the week, and she’s good. No more missed medication.
