Sagely Smart XL Weekly Pill Organizer - Sleek AM/PM Twice a Day Pill Box with Free Smartphone Reminder App and 7 Day Travel Containers (Large Enough to Fit Fish Oil and Vitamin D Supplements)

My husband takes a multitude of medications twice daily. For several years, I have been looking for a pill box that will check all of the boxes for our needs:1. Twice daily compartments: Self-explanatory, but for some reason it is hard to come by2. Large compartments: He takes close to 20 pills a day, and some of them are huge (fish oil, anyone?). His fingers are also very large and he has difficulty with getting pill boxes open and closed properly. It is also nearly impossible for him to stick his finger in the container and fish out the pills when they get wedged in the container.3. Travel-friendly: Sometimes he would need to bring the container along, or else bring about 20 bottles of pills (which he has had to do before). Compartments need to be secure.4. Not ridiculously sized: His care team has given us "solutions" in the past -- one was over 1 foot by 1 foot square! He also had to turn over the entire thing to get the pills from one of the small compartments. What a nightmare. He used it for about two days before it got thrown in the garbage.I'm happy to report that this pill organizer checks all the boxes and more. It is a fantastic size with plenty of room to spare, so he can simply open the top and turn the container over into his hand, not worrying about what might get left behind because it is wedged together in the container. He doesn't have to try to fish pills out of small containers anymore. Each "pod" comes apart from the rest of the assembly, so he only has to turn over a 2-compartment oval instead of a 30-compartment monstrosity. The lids are durable silicon, so they are easy to get open and closed properly and you can just throw it into a bag and go wherever you need without worrying about whether the boxes are going to open and spill.There are a couple of other features that we really appreciate that I didn't even have on my list.First, these have an x cut into the top of the silicon lids so that you can lay out the pills in a line to be sure each pod has a pill before you push them through to the container. No more guessing whether you put a pill in which container because you lost count or were distracted! No more counting the pills in each container to be sure! You can visually see one of each pill laid out and rest assured that you've got it right.Second, these are sort of color coded, so that they are one color on one end of the pod and a different color on the other end. Therefore, he can turn the pod around so that he knows which day he is on just by looking at the top of the thing. (He uses green for morning and blue for evening pills, so after he takes his morning pills, he turns the pod around so that blue is facing him when he comes back to it.) It's hard to describe, but makes life a lot easier.Best of all, the process is easy as pie now. I do all the work to put the pills into the containers once a week, and remind him when it is time to take his medications. It's all laid out in a container that ACTUALLY WORKS so he isn't confused and frustrated. Easy peasy! This container is worth the cost.

Have not found any other weekly pill organizer that matches this innovative design. Very user friendly for those who have an AM and PM regime, and can use a bit of extra assistance keeping things straight. It is a bit large (XL was the only size I could find), but I have found a manageable spot for it on the side of my bathroom counter. The containers fit securely on the base tray, but are also easily removable when ready to access.Selling points: I really like the fact that the pills can be easily pushed through the slits at the top, as this has helped streamline the weekly loading process. The pills can be viewed through each side of the containers. The rubberized lids are flexible to open and close and allow for easy pill removal at each time interval. Once the AM dose has been taken, the container for that day can be turned around on the tray showing the PM side up front as the next dose to be taken that day.(I do not use the medication app reminder which they say comes as a "free" option for this, as I personally have no use for it.)The device is a bit pricey, but I'm glad I found it.

I have used one of these pill boxes for a couple of years now, and recently bought a second one for my wife. She now has medications she must take twice a day, and this pill box is convenient for that. In addition it offers a lot of space for one's pills and daily supplements.For a year or more I used the slits in the top of each compartment to push pills and capsules through in order to refill a week's supply. But about a year ago, I found it more convenient to use 7 clothespins to hold the covers on each compartment open while refilling. That way I can just drop my pills, potions, and poisons directly into their respective compartments. This defeats one of the clever design features of these boxes, but hey, that's just me.This pillbox also had some other convenient features, including the different colored sides. When taking my morning pills, I turn that particular pillbox 180° when placing it back on the magnetic base. That way it is easy to see at a glance from above which is the active box for a given day. And at the end of the week, I then reorder the individual boxes when refilling by swapping Sa-Su, F-M, and Tues-Thurs to put the boxes back in my preferred order for the week. This sounds complicated, I know, but once one sees the cumulative effect of each days 180° turn on each individual box, then perhaps one will understand that the preferred l-r order of the days is reversed.Because these individual boxes are removable and the tops fit quite tightly and are secure, when pressed down firmly over the plastic lip of the pill compartment, they are good for short term travel of a few days. It is easy to toss into one's luggage as many of the boxes as needed for the length of time one expects to be away.Now make no mistake, this pillbox is expensive as such things go, but this is, far and away, the best pill box, which I have ever had.
