5 Reasons I Finally Threw Out My Plastic Pill Box
Summary: For years it was the same drawer. A 7 day plastic box with lids that popped open on their own, 3 bottles I kept forgetting to refill, and a sandwich bag for the ones that did not fit. I could never remember what was in which slot. 10,000+ women have swapped that whole mess for one small zip case. Here is what we all worked out.
1. It Doesn't Look Like A Medicine Bag
A plastic dispenser sitting on the kitchen counter tells every visitor exactly what you take, and how much of it. That was the part I hated.
This one just looks like a little makeup pouch. Smooth matte leather, a neat zipper, nothing clinical about it. It sits out on the counter or on my nightstand and nobody gives it a second look.
2. You Fill It Once And You Are Set
7 or 14 pouches clip onto the rings inside. Sunday morning, coffee in hand, I work through the bottles and empty them into the pouches, and that is the job done.
No more standing at the counter at night wondering whether I already took the magnesium. It is sorted before the week even starts, and I can see at a glance what is left.
3. You Can Actually Write On Them
With the old dispenser I was always guessing. Little white pills in one slot, little white pills in the next, and no idea which was which.
Every pouch here has a label printed on it with a blank line and boxes for AM, PM and Other. You write it once with a marker and you never guess again. The coloured zips help too, you learn which one is which without even reading.
4. It Lives Wherever You Need It
Mine stays in the kitchen drawer. My sister keeps hers in her handbag, a friend keeps one in the glove box of her car.
It is flat, it stands on its own and it zips shut all the way round, so nothing rattles and nothing escapes. That was never true of the plastic box, which opened itself at the bottom of a bag more than once.
5. Right Now, You Get 50% Off
Pick your colour, there are 6 of them, and it is half price while the Fall Sale is on. Plenty of women order 2, one for the kitchen and one that lives in the car.
Every order comes with easy returns, no questions asked. The green one sells out first every time. If yours is in stock, I would not sit on it.
