"I bought this pill organizer for my husband. It is still going strong; all the buttons still open easily and close tightly."
"Just too much trouble, but I think my triglycerides and cholesterol are at world record high levels so instead of statins I am taking the more un-lethal approach with less posionous natural stuff. I was trying to dig all these pills out of the stupid little bottles and my wife sugested getting this organizer to make the task less daunting."
"I have 12 different pills and vitamin supplements I take daily and it fit all of them in one slot easily."
"So I cant fit all my daily in the AM and PM for the day, But it make a big dent in the daily bottle opening."
"It comes in a plastic bag, so the issue of the one cell not remaining closed likely would not have been noticed by the seller. That said, if you order it, I'd recommend checking that each cell clicks shut securely, and if any doesn't, contact the seller for a replacement. I thought I'd be able to figure out the issue with mine and fix it, but it's a real puzzler, and has evaded my attempts so far."
"This means that 31% of the organizer is taken up by the latches and the space down the middle for their operation. The latches also make the organizer more complicated and hence more expensive."
Big letters on the top of each clear lid of each compartment will make it easy for you to know what is inside of the organizer without necessity to open each one of them. BIG LETTERS AND CLEAR LIDS – each compartment of this pill dispenser is clearly marked with easy-to-read big letters of each day and thanks to seathrough lids you can see which compartment is full and which is empty.

Find Best Price at Amazon"I chose this pill box because there is plenty of room for pills in each compartment, and I like the idea of pushbuttons to open the compartments."
"Pills are easy to get out of the compartments as there is a slight curve on the edge to scoop them out."
"And the individual push button opener keeps all other pill compartments secure while you dump one compartment’s contents out."
"I take a number of pills both prescribed and supplements."
"REALLY BIG, I could fit all of my vitamins inside, even the large vitamins."
"Fairly well made."
"The only problem I have with this pill organizer is that the writing on the tops wears off."
"The buttons to open the compartments are so easily pushed, I find I constantly and unknowingly open a compartment or 2 just by picking up this organizer."
Because pills and vitamins differ greatly in overall size, in order to better answer the question of how many pills / vitamins will each pill box hold, we calculated the amount of advil and m&m candies would fit in each compartment and pill box: standard pill box(16) advil per dose compartment or (64) advil total per pill box(10) m&m candies per dose compartment or (40) m&m candies per pill box. 31 Daily pill boxes organize your medications or vitamins by the month.

"We fill the first 2 compartment with morning pills and vitamins, the 3rd compartment with afternoon pills, and the last compartment for night time pills."
"PROS: Four compartments per day, easily portable (simply grab one day's sleeve or as many as you need - no need to work with many bulky pill bottles), compartments are large enough to fit several large pills and numerous smaller pills, easily identify the dosage(s) you're missing most frequently at the end of the month, when you get to the end of the month, you know it's time to call the pharmacy for refills."
"Very nicely designed pill organizer!"
"If each unit had an additional (or multiple) compartments this would be ideal for someone who takes several different meds throughout the day."
"No problems with compartments popping open and dumping my pills all over."
"I had to get some thing that would hold all my meds in for the month and when I got this didn't think it was that big, I havnt used it yet as it doesn't leave much room on top of my dresser, so when I move and get settle in to new place I will find a different place to put it, but I like the hole thing, my son spoke of it very highly and told him to get it, so know complaints here."
"I purchased a 7 day dispenser here on Amazon that has held up well after several weeks of use - AND our home health nurse actually prefers a 7 day dispenser in case medications are changed by the doctor - she said it was much easier to change a few days of medications rather than 30 days. Plus, the cost of the 7 day dispenser was much, much less (I bought 3 extra as backups that I have not needed yet, and 4 of the 7 day were either the same price or cheaper than this 31 day dispenser."

Best Pill Crushers & Splitters
The twin blade, aluminum, all-in-one pill cutter. Equadose is a revolutionary new pill cutter that solves many of the issues with traditional, plastic, single-blade tablet cutters; and it works with just about every size and shape tablet. The design utilizes two opposing blades that come in from the sides to effectively score the pill prior to cutting. Opposing blades Our blades are angled so they will never dull, yet they are not sharp to the touch. TWIN BLADES: The double blades create a split point that gives you perfect halves every time!

"Update: I wanted to post a response to the seller's reply, and fix the product link earlier- but when you're chronically ill, things just don't always happen. For the pill pictured in the photo I uploaded, which is 4 mg methylprednisolone with scored surface for both horizontal and longitudinal splitting, this splitter has worked pretty well. If the pill surface is domed and doesn't have a score, the blade will tend to slip and getting it centered is really hard (this does not work as well at evenly splitting my Armour Thyroid, for example). Initially I assumed it must be a design defect, but upon inspection I realized there's no way to center it given the way it is manufactured. My husband (both of us have engineering degrees) also pointed out that the rotating design means that the cutting blade comes in at an angle. If your pills don't have a center score and aren't the right size/shape for the divot (about the size of a Tylenol caplet) you'll have to eyeball it."
"In order to center the pill, it was necessary to use a letter (a large "M") embossed in the pill, to approximate the center between the 2 blades. This will provide more stability, and prevent the pill from shifting (off center) when closing/clamping the blades together. One must 'eyeball' to approximate the center of the pill. I am no engineer by any stretch of the imagination, but I've uploaded a couple pics to explain what I mean by an adjustable 'fence' to center the pill; using a thin, malleable, material that can spring back to accommodate a clean disassociation. I postulate that a small (or large) pill could be stabilized within a small fence, as demonstrated with the 4 staples in the pic. The large fence made of foil, is an enlarged depiction of the mechanics to center the pill."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I was a little concerned that some of the reviewers said that the plastic was cheap and poorly made and the pill containers opened easily but went ahead and ordered them anyway. I just got the product yesterday and immediately tested it out and here are my findings: PRESENTATION: It looks exactly as it does on Amazon and actually better than expected. Also like the size of the individual pill containters because I'm taking supplements and they don't fit in others I've ordered. THEY DO NOT OPEN EASILY which is exactly what you want from pill cases floated around your handbag. I did my best to address their concerns and refund anyone who felt that the product didn't fit their needs, but all I could do was email those I had the contact information for through the Amazon system."
"I unfortunately have to take a crap load of pills and vitamins. I can fit a lot of large pills and vitamins in each hole."
"This is well designed and seems to be well made...my husband and I take a lot of supplements and its so nice to just do a weeks worth and they fit in the compartments!"
"I have a bad memory and I take a lot of pills so writing the down on that paper in the organizer is good stuff!"
"It’s a well designed, easy to open, large compartment pill case."
"The plastic cases are not the greatest quality."
"I bought this for the size of the compartments and it works well in that regard."
"The 7 sections fit onto a frame which slides into the clear plastic covered pocket (compartment covers can't open), and then the dark cover (keeps light off meds) fasteners over all with Velcro......CAN YOU TELL THAT I LIKE THE TRAVEL PILL BOX FOR EVERYDAY USE ?"

Find Best Price at Amazon"I came across these about 6 months ago and for the first time in my life I don't wake up with burning dry eyes and I don't need to add drops constantly throughout the days. This means everyday when you're adding drops you're not tearing your natural eye lubricants apart but instead helping build them up. I didn't get a discount on this or anything, I'm just writing the review to help anyone else like me who has a similar annoying and constant fight on their hands."
"The Bausch & Lomb instantly impressed me, though, because there was NO stinging or burning, no wincing or watering eye, no fear of it not calming down or needing to be rinsed out immediately. I knew instantly that for me, personally, the Bausch & Lomb was the clear winner. And that feeling of soothing, comforting, protective relief lasted for at least six hours. Whether there would be a long-term difference, there's no way to tell at this point; but I'm not willing to put the Thera Tears back into either of my eyes since it burns and stings and the B&L does not. (And no, I'm not affiliated with either company--just someone with extremely dry, irritated eyes from winter heating, outdoor wind, aging and too much computer use who didn't know which one to buy, so I bought both and tried them both)."
"It is a good sized bottle and drops come out easily but I have found that these eye drops do not help my dry eyes at all."
"I always have dry eyes."
"They work."
"I have tried so many eye drops with limited success."
"Only drops that work I have dry eye so bad especially at night I can't even open my eyes or move them it hurts so bad."
"Honestly do not know if these work...my eyes feel more refreshed, but doesn't help with redness really."
