Re: Often Forget to Take My Medicine- Help!!

Set an alarm and keep your pills next to them. That's what I would do. Ironically, I'd forget to take my pills even if they were in front of my face all the time.
I need an alarm to sort of bring it to my attention. Also, you could get an alarm app for your mobile phone (if you use phones that have apps).

Re: Often Forget to Take My Medicine- Help!!

I pack mine for work the next day before the meds wear off, that way when I make it out the door in a daze the next morning it's not a big deal if I forgot about them or not. They're also out in plain site.

Re: Often Forget to Take My Medicine- Help!!

I have mind on my nightstand but I also got this little metal cylinder pill case that is waterproof from Walgreens to put a few extra pills in. It has a key ring on it and it is attached to an inside pocket in my backpack. I also keep a few extra pills in my glovebox (in the original pill bottles with prescription label still on them just in case) it is always better to be over prepared, I have learned the hard way numerous times

As far as reminders I am doing pretty good now but use google calendars with reacurring events that pop up on my phone,laptop, and iPad.
