Can you remember the last time you were prescribed a medication and you took each and every dose on time, as directed?  Probably not.  Did you know that just about 50% of people who have prescription medications in their home do not take them as directed which causes more than 125,000 deaths each year? Pretty sad, isn’t it?  Preventable, but sad.  What if I told you that I’ve found a product that has been studied to curb medication over or under doses by about 34%.  For about $10, the Rx Timer Cap® can help save lives.  Plain and simple.

The Rx Timer Cap® features a built-in LCD timer that automatically counts the minutes and hours since a patient last took their medication.

rx timer cap reviewWhen I first told my mom about the Rx Timer Cap®, we both giggled about it seeming like a useless gadget that would have been something my grandfather would have picked up back in his time, but then she told me that she’d always second guess herself about her medication.

Mom had thyroid cancer about 12 years ago.  Now that she has had her thyroid removed, she takes Synthroid twice a day.  Her prescription says to take one in the evening and at the same time in the morning.  She pretty much has to take them exactly 12 hours apart, or she fatigues easily among other things.  She told me that she’d get up and take one at 5 am and at about 6 am, she’d start to wonder if she took it or not.

The other day, I stopped in for a visit, and she told me that the Rx Timer Cap® is the best gadget of the year!  Now, she never second guesses herself, she keeps to a schedule, and she stays on top of her medication.

Rx Timer Cap ReviewRx Timer Cap® activation is automatic and foolproof since there are no alarms to program, no buttons to press and no instructions to read. Unlike medication reminders and medication alerts, which require programming, the mere act of opening and closing the container resets the automatic patented pill timer.

The Timer Cap has come in handy over the last couple of weeks in our home, because our teenager ruptured her eardrum.  Not only was she prescribed antibiotics to be administered every six hours, she was able given a prescription of pain medicine as well as ear drops.  Both the pain medication and ear drops do not need to be taken on a strict schedule, she has to wait a certain amount of time before taking another dose so that she doesn’t run the risk of an overdose.  We store the pills in two different Timer Cap bottles and the tube of ear drops in another.

Rx Timer Cap® come in a few different sizes and types, including childproof bottles and caps that replace many standard pill bottles from your pharmacy.  I like that most are childproof, because we have a lot of little ones running around here!

This is a great gift for the loved ones in your life who must take daily medications!
