Um dear.. I bought a pill box at age 31, and I couldn't have been happier in doing so. Made my life so much easier not having to remember if I'd taken my pill and having to count through 100+ pills when I honestly couldn't remember.

My pill box comes with its own case...
It has seven containers, each one has four compartments...remembering to fill them back up has become the latest challenge.

Which is worse using a 'storage' unit or missing/doubling up on your meds?
That's what I call mine...the storage unit free of charge. lol

I use a really large one.....don't need all the compartments but I'm too cheap to go buy a new one!! The one I use has an AM, Noon, Afternoon and PM pill compartment for each day! I only use the AM and PM ones now. I love it 'cos it's just one less thing I have to remember.....not that I would anyway but it helps!
