How do you organise your meds?

7 Replies

I have a weekly pill box where I sort each day individually however how do you store your meds when they aren't in use for that week?

I have a weekly dosette box for sorting out meds in, and I keep the boxes of meds in a plastic storage box. We get a 2 month supply so any that don't fit in box are kept in carrier bag I get them in from the chemist x

I also use weekly dose boxes, and I have a the top drawer of my dresser - my pharmacy lol. It's full to the brim with meds boxes.

Each month I pop them all out of their blister packs into one plastic tub...all mixed up together.

I know...I know....It's wrong and I'm a bad man but it works for me.

I set both mine and my husband’s pills up weekly and call in what we are running low on and store the others in a bath hospital basin under the bathroom sink. Also stacked under there are refills on the automatic refills. Yes it looks like a pharmacy. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I have 2 plastic boxes (rather large I'm afraid) in the kitchen. One is for my regular meds and the other is for as needed. I have 2 drawers in my bedroom with new meds.
