    Still worth Roy (and others) being aware of it, though.

    I must mention it to MIL: she spends hours sorting out FIL's pills each week ... and he then argues with her about what he's supposed to take when, because his memory is shot so he doesn't remember that it's changed. If it was all in blister packs for him he might be less bolshy.

    I hav mine done in packs by the pharmacist. It makes a real difference, as long as I get the day of the week right :(

    I wonder if there is a product that tells you audibly if you've removed a tablet from the case.

    I often find I've taken 2 tablets at night instead of 1.
    No matter what I do, (the usual little cases with days on) I find
    myself half-asleep convinced I've not taken my tablet, and take another.

    Any ideas pls?
    Do you live with anyone that can help you here. I have a similar problem. I forget I have taken my tablets so to avoid either overdosing or going without my son makes sure I have taken them, and I always ask if I get a bit confused.
    Wow, I got 3 *, when did that happen :j:T:p

    Thank you for that, I automatically thought PivoTell and went to get a link to show the OP what I thought you meant. BUT they do a MiniTell now as well which is a fraction of the price.
