Apex Pocket Med
Well, I have to say I was a little dissapointed with this item.
The seller is fine, shipped it fast, etc. No problems there.
It was just a little cheaply made for being over 6 dollars. The main issue is it the little pill containers don't stay latched very well. Considering the cost of medication, I really need a container that stays latched, losing meds I can barely afford as it is, is not an option for me.
This device only works as a stationary pill holder/organizer, and you better be careful when you pick it up, because they come open VERY easily.
Sigh... I'll use it until I find something better.
I have to put the containers in a sandwhich baggy to be on the safe side. That way when they come open I don't lose my meds.
Good concept, poor execution
I was excited to get this product after reading the reviews. I had previously used a 7 day, one compartment per day, each connected to the other (like you would purchase at the drug store). Each day I would have to sort out the morning from the evening pills so I was looking forward to the AM/PM pills being separate as well as having one detachable "pod" per day. When I began using it, I found the following flaws, which were very annoying:
1. I always load my pills at the beginning of the week like an assembly like. So I lined up each of the pill container pods on my countertop and opened them all. They immediately TIPPED BACKWARDS TO REST ON THE HINGE (each lid making a 45 degree angle with the countertop). This made filling each pod impossible without picking each one up and manually filling one, closing it again (so they don't fall out when I set it back down, picking up another bottle of pills, and repeating the process. With my old system, I could open all the days and fill all of them. I ended up trying to prop the back lid against a wall but since they are so slippery and oval shaped, they tended to slide back down).
THIS IS WHAT SHOULD BE FIXED: THE LOWER LID SHOULD BE HEAVIER THAN THE UPPER LID SO IT CAN REST FLAT AND HAVE A LOWER CENTER OF GRAVITY. ADDITIONALLY, THERE SHOULD BE A RUBBER PAD OR LOW FRICTION SURFACE UNDER THE LOWER LID TO DECREASE TIPPING AND SLIDING.
2. It's unbelievable that each compartment (morning and evening) does not have it's own lid. WOW. Taking out the morning pills is difficult without the PM pills spilling out too. Also, when filling them, AM and PM pills can easily fall into the other compartment (or fall out of the pod).
FIX: MAKE TWO SEPARATE LIDS PLEASE!!
3. I don't consider myself "elderly" but these are SLIPPERY CONTAINERS. They often slip out of my hands and with meds inside, this is dangerous for losing pills (you absolutely don't want any falling on the floor with kids or pets around).
4. The lids do not reassure me that they are closed securely. Opens too eaily. No nice snap sound. Furthermore, the opening mechanism is such that you need to lift the left tab upwards while the right tab downwards. I could not figure out how to open it for a short while and this requires some small amount of dexterity (again, perhaps not best for some people).
So good concept, needs improvement. I am a 5 stars or 1 star person, but the most I could give this is 1.5 to 2 stars.
Excellent and Colorful Pill Set
This is a very colorful and very handy pill box unit, with space for both AM and PM meds on a daily basis. Unlike other units which do not separate, each of the colorful daily box pods can be removed and carried individually, which is a handy feature. Nicely designed, and nicely presented.
take along pill case
This product is great. It stores my AM and PM meds which helps me remember to take them.
Also if I'm away from home in the evening I just take the case with me.
It stays closed for security and is small enough to fit in my shirt pocket.
Fabulous product!!!
How wonderful this is! Being able to sort all of my supplements at the beginning of the week and having to carry only one small, individual case is so convenient and has kept me from skipping doses. Unlike other weekly pill sorters that tend to be large, the small size of the individual daily cases allows it to fit anywhere, including a pants pocket, and makes it easy to grab when I'm on the go! Another great feature for me is the AM/PM designations because I don't have to try to remember which pills I have taken and when. If you want to simplify and ensure your dosing schedule, do not pass on this item!
