Taking Your Medicines On Time, Every Time

If you've ever been given medication to take then you know the problem. Your daily routine has been disrupted. For a short while, you'll probably be fairly good at remembering to take your medicine. Or, almost as likely, you'll break out in a cold sweat and be constantly worried whether you've popped the correct pills at the right time.

The problem is that not all medications are the same. {Some need to be taken an hour before food}. {Others need taking at with food}. Still other medications should be taken well away from eating. Some medications are to be taken first thing on waking. Others last thing at night. And anywhere else your doctor thinks he can fool you.

It's not easy to remember exactly which pill needs to be taken and precisely what time to take it. Just one pill a day when you wake up? That's fairly easy (if you don't have kids) - just put the pot next to your toothbrush.

4 tablets when you go to bed - that's likely quite simple as well.

But two purple tablets three times a day, another giant lozenge alternate Sundays, the strange tasting liquid with lunch each day? It's starting to get that you need your own personall assistant to remind you!

And then just when you're getting used to everything, your doctor prescribes a change or thinks that you'd be better off with this new wonder potion.

One possibility is to get hold of a neat little pill dispenser and a set of rewriteable labels to help remind you. And after that what you'll also need is to place it somewhere there's enough opportunities to see it during the day to remind yourself and you're all set.

Another method is to teach your mind to remind you to tell you to take your pills. Now you may be thinking you have difficulty remembering much anyway. But the neat thing about this is that it's a technique that doesn't rely on your conscious mind to do anything at all.
