Back when I was on way more medication I also used an app (Medisafe) That would send notifications to my phone reminding me to take medications; which came in handy; might be something to look into if you feel you need a reminder. You would input the medications and it would also check if any of the medication had serious interactions with each other.
I just downloaded that app, no idea something like that existed. That refill reminder is amazing, I always refill at the last minute, this will save me some very ticked off people.

Thank you!!!!!

Sure thing! I really love the compactness of it; I can toss it in my purse and have my medication on the go with me. Amazon has tons similar in different colors. Plus, you can cram a lot of pills into the spots; I have no problem fitting all of my medication into it. I also like how it has morning, noon, evening, and bed. I mainly use three of the four but still all those spaces are nice to have.

Organizing the meds.... so many meds
