The (almost) perfect daily pill organizer!
I take a LOT of daily pills - prescriptions, vitamins, and supplements (under medical supervision). Most recently, I’m up to 12 different pills to take each morning (see photo of just the pills). I’ve always been looking for a classy case for them that doesn’t make me look like I’m two steps away from a care home. For a long time, I thought I’d found a great organizer in the 7 Day Pretty Pillbox from Medcessories (the pink rectangle in the photos). Unfortunately, as my supplements increased, room in the Pretty Pillbox got tight and I had to Tetris in my meds every week. If they weren’t in *just so* I couldn’t get the case closed. Finally, the time came where my docs wanted to add another supplement and that pillbox was finally tapped out. In my search for a slightly bigger, yet still classy pillbox, I decided to try the GMS Stackable 7-Day Pill Organizer (the round rainbow case in the photos) and the Zannaki Metal Moisture Proof Weekly Pill Organizer (this item - pink cylinder in the photos).
The WINNER is the Zannaki Pill Organizer, hands down.
Pros:
- It’s actually slightly smaller in overall dimensions than any of the other 7-day organizers.
- It’s waterproof and spill proof.
- It’s modular design makes it easy to fill and easy to take only the days you need if traveling.
- Most importantly, each section has the largest volume and holds ALL my pills (including the new supplements).
Cons:
- It’s metal, so it’s a bit on the heavy side.
- If you are a bit OCD and you don’t tighten each cylinder just the right way, the days of the week labels end up out of alignment.
- The Saturday section is slightly bigger than the other days (as seen in the side-by-side photo with the two extra green pills). Make sure you use any other day to test to ensure each section will hold everything you need.
- Because there is no bottom cap, if you want to change the order of the days (for example, I want my week to start with Monday on top), Saturday still has to stay on the bottom. TIP TO MANUFACTURER: There is plenty of room to shorten the top cap and give us a separate bottom cap while maintaining the current silhouette. That would make this the COMPLETELY perfect pill case.
Even with the cons, this pill organizer is awesome. All of the pros make this the right size, easy to use and manage, and still super classy looking. No sickly overtones with this case. In fact, I’m going to get a second one in a different color for my evening pills. I’m telling my docs that this taps me out on meds - if they no longer fit in my case, something needs to go! :)
