Automatic Pill Dispenser with Sound Alarm for Timed Medicine Organizer - 28 Day Pill Dispenser Machine for Elderly with Alarm, Sound, Light - Timed Medication Dispenser Organizers

We have not missed any meds since we started using this! This was recommended by our doctors to help remember multiple medications. The instuctions and set up were easy to follow. The clock and alarms are easy to set and the buttons are under the clear top so nothing can be changed unless the unit is unlocked and opened. The clock has a sleep mode, the display will turn off until next alarm or movement of unit to reserve battery. The alarm speaker is on the bottom but is still loud and the lights help grab your attention. The alarm and lights keep going in short intervals until the unit is tipped over to release dose. The pill door is easy to slide and access. We did have to remove the "Push" sticker on the top tab (used for opening the top of unit) as this caused confusion on how to get the pills out. The lock function works great keeping the dosage and clock buttons secure and is easy to access with the key. The unit is easy to fill. There are several different dosage wheels to select from. We get 7 days out of the 4× per day pill selection. Depending on the time we refill meds we may get 6 and a half days due to how the sorter advances. **Once it reaches the blank it WILL keep advancing. It Will count the blank as a dosage time and throw off pill timing if you have any remaining that have been missed until you reset the wheel. They alarm does shut off after 20 min or so if you are gone during the scheduled time. The unit will still advance to the next dosage at scheduled time if you miss a dose. There is a small gap between the top and dosage tray. If the unit is not locked this gap gets larger and will allow some pill migration. We keep it locked and have not had any issue with pill slippage or migration. The battery has a slide to keep it closed. This has been fine with no issues for now however, I would like to see some sort of screw here as the batteries can easily be removed turning the unit off. Overall, this is a great unit for someone taking multiple medications. It has helped maintain independence and we would definitely purchase again.

Stopped working but, after further working on this, I had bad batteries. My mother put old ones in with the new ones. So there is nothing wrong with this unit. Works fine and easy for someone with dementia to use. Just hide the key.

This product works very well. The only problem is with the locking device is difficult to use the key to lock it is hard to use.

I have brought several of these to replace after one has broken. I’ve brought each one from Amazon and they all stop working in 6-8 months with the pill tray not rotating or showing error. I replace battery and that doesn’t work. Other customers have reported the same along with the inability to get ahold of the seller. I will try but based on my experience, I do not recommend.

I love the idea of this. Only 2 things I would change one being the volume of the alarms, most elderly have hearing loss and need it to be louder. I would like the machine to make the medicine unassessable after 45 minutes post alarm, so medicine is not taken later making it close to time for next dose.
