If your family is anything like mine then your weeks are likely spent constantly on-the-go between school, sports practices, work, doctor appointments, band or choir concerts, etc. With busy schedules, it can be difficult to keep track of when/if family members (and even yourself!) have taken their medications as prescribed. Thankfully, there are pill reminders available that are small enough to slip in your purse or pocket on-the-go. These are some of my favorites:

• Four-Times-A-Day Pocket-Thin Pill Reminder  perfect for the long day away from home and for medications that must be taken more than once a day.
  

  Flip top reminder is shaped for a comfortable fit

• 8-Day Pocket-Thin Pill Reminder won’t take up much space in purses, backpacks or coat pockets. It’s neat and discreet.
• Squeeze-Open Pill Pouch stores up to six pills and, rather than opening up a box, you simply squeeze the pouch to release pills. So easy!
• Flip-Top Pill Box is a unique shape for a comfortable fit in pant pockets and a convenient flip-top for easy access to pills. It’s helpful for men who don’t have the luxury of large purses for storage!

With these pill reminders handy, you won’t have to worry about whether you or your family members have taken their medications. Visit your local pharmacy such as CVS, Walgreens or Walmart to pick up these and other pill boxes. A list of national retailers is available here.

How do you manage your family’s medications while on-the-go?
