MED-E-LERT Automatic Pill Dispenser for Elderly with Alarm and Key Lock Box, Automatic Medication Dispenser - 28 Compartments Medication Organizer - Clear and Solid White Lids, FSA/HSA Eligibility

Amazing item, as a family we can rest knowing Nan has her meds at a certain time and they are easy to get to and she is taking the right amount. The only flaw is there is no volume for the alarm and it’s rather quiet especially because this item is probably used most by the elderly. Yes the red light flashes but the alarm my Nan can’t hear, if there was an option for it to be set higher would have made this perfect. Apart from the one flaw this item is amazing!!! 9.5/10 from me

I purchased this item over a year ago, and felt compelled to write a review because it has been a lifesaver for my 95 year-old mother-in-law who lives alone in her own home. The dispenser is easy to set up and is very reliable. It enables her to take the proper medication at the correct time every day and is very simple for her to operate. I highly recommend it!

A los 5 meses de uso, salió un mensaje de Error en la pantalla. Pensamos que eran las pilas, las cambiamos pero siguió con el mensaje y sin funcionar. No hay garantía....

my mom used it for two weeks and no more back and forth checking whether it's the right pills at the right time. Two thumbs up! However, the time runs faster and faster after the 1st year and it's about 10 minutes earlier than the standard time. This screws up my voice reminder which is set to the standard time.

Purchased this for my mother who was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s dementia and started on medications for high blood pressure. Medications we certainly did not want her to take more than she needed and only when she needed. It has been a godsend. Able to set for multiple dispensing times a day. Alarm can be set loud enough it can be heard throughout the house. There is no ignoring it. Shuts off after you empty pills in your hand. She has repeatedly said if it wasn’t for the alarm she wouldn’t remember to take her medications. Locks and she has not figured out how to open it...she has tried. The lock is not easily visible so she was unaware it required a key until she saw me fill the box. Hide the key. However, with her dementia she she has since forgotten. Replaced the batteries once after about 4-5 months. Highly recommend this item and have done so with friends, family members, coworkers, and other healthcare providers. I am a nurse and have done discharge planning in a hospital for years. This is a Great item to assist with medication compliance, a common issue with elderly patients who require repeat admissions to the hospital.

This device may be a bit tricky to set up, but the online video really helps a lot. Once it's done, and you've loaded the pills as needed, it just works. I like that that, even if you miss the alarm for some reason, there is a red light that keep flashing to remind you to take your pills. As someone who always forgets to take medication, this does the job well.
