DISPILL-USA - Simple, Safe and Convenient Multi-Dose Medication Packaging System, Pill Organizer - Dispill USA

This is how my blister packs work that the pharmacy puts together for me. I thought some of you might like to see how they work. I love them. No more sitting on the floor filling med boxes!

They're basically K-cups for your meds! Thanks for the link.

Except I hope you don't pour them into hot water to make an antipsychotic breakfast blend coffee

But I guess to each their own

Sounds convenient but I wouldn't use them. Just like k-cups they are horrible for the environment. I've screwed my kids up enough with this disease, I refuse to screw up their environment too.

I know! I cant BELIEVE how bad kcups are for the environment. I almost had a heart attack when my cousins daughter was showing me hers. I was like, but youre the next generation! Dont you KNOW?! She was all like, what flavor do you want, it only takes a minute!

I use Webster Packs.
Some of us only have access to meds if they’re in a blister pack for a whole lot of reasons including suicidality.
Some of us also have had to make a choice. Would my family prefer me alive and ‘well’? Or would they be happier with an ‘oh dear mum’s dead but at least she did her bit for the environment’ scenario?
Sometimes one can only pick the best of two bad choices.

I think it's a good idea. With me though I have a system that works and that I am happy with.

It would not help me because I would still need to fill the meds box with supplements: I take vitamins D and E, Gingko Biloba, Melatonin, Fish Oil, and Lutein for my eyes.

This is good information. I wish I had known. My late husband had heart failure from radiation treatments. He had to take a lot of pills and felt embarrassed just to pick up all the bags. It was a chore to sort the pills.

The pharmacy never said anything!!
