Contributing Factors for medication non-adherance
-
The cost of medications.
-
Poor communication between the doctor and patient.
-
The complex regimens required of many prescription drugs.
The Pillposit Pill Sorter specifically addresses the complexity of the prescription regimen by making it easier to identify, sort and take the growing number of pills prescribed by doctors.
Why is regimen complexity a problem?
-
Pills often look similar and keeping them separate and organized while filling pill containers can be confusing.
-
People lose count and/or mix up similar looking pills resulting in missed or doubled dosages.
-
Off the shelf pill cases are physically hard to fill, especially for older individuals lacking manual dexterity.
-
It can take a long time to fill pill containers and people want a quicker and easier way to accomplish this necessary, but never ending task.
-
The more pills you take, the more difficult it becomes to keep track of the days and dosages of each prescription.
The Solution : The Pillposit Pill Sorter helps insure pill containers are correctly filled so prescription medications, vitamins, minerals and other supplements are taken on the appropriate day and in the proper dosage.
-
The Pillposit is simple and easy to handle.
-
The Pillposit grid can be populated quickly and with minimal effort.
-
Similar shaped, colored and sized pills are placed in separate rows and assigned to specific days before being deposited into the pill box reducing the potential for mistakes.
-
Pills are organized and aligned within a grid so every day and every pill can be visually verified before being deposited into the pill case.
-
A single Pillposit pill sorter can be used by multiple family members and for multiple pill boxes.
