7 day pill box, FIVE sections 15 January at 2:54PM in Health & beauty MoneySaving 5 replies 191 views

I've been trying to find a 7 day, 5 section pill box. Currently we have an excellent, non brittle 7 day 4 section, flip lid item that needs replacing due to extra medication that has to be taken at less convenient times. I sent for one which turned out to be difficult to open, hard plastic, and caused problems with elderly hands. Does anyone have or know where such an item can be obtained please?.

Amazon is a good bet

My mom needed one of these and we couldn't find one anywhere so my brother bought her 5 x 7 day boxes and glued them together.

My 95 year old relative gets his pills dispensed from the chemist in prepacked strips. I believe they are marked day by day, free too.

I have found that , all chemists where I enquired, will only give this free service if the GP will offer weekly, instead of monthly repeats. Ours won't do this.
