How To Remember To Take Your Medication Every Time Without Having An Elephant's Memory

If you've ever been given medication to take then you know the problem. Your routine has changed. For a short while, you'll probably be fairly good at remembering to take your medicine. Or, almost as likely, you'll start twitching wondering whether or not you've taken the right pills at the right time.

It would be easy if all medications were designed to all be taken at the same time. Slim chance. {Some need to be taken an hour before food}. {Others need taking at with food}. Yet others should be taken well away from meals. Some medications are to be taken first thing on waking. Others last thing at night. And seemingly at other random times.

It's not easy to remember exactly which tablet needs to be taken and precisely what time to take it. Just one pill a day when you wake up? That's fairly easy (at least when you're at home) - place the tub of tablets alongside your toothbrush.

Four pills just before you go to sleep - that's likely reasonably simple also.

But two green tablets twice a day, that overpackaged "thing" once a week, the strange tasting pill with your evening meal each day? You're going to need a secretary to remind you!

And then just when you're getting used to everything, your doctor decides you need something new or different to try instead or as well.

One way is to get a nifty little device that holds all your current tablets and some labels to tell you when to take them. All you need to do then put it somewhere prominent where there's enough opportunities to see it during the day to remind yourself and you're all set.

A different method is to train your mind to remember to tell you to take your pills. Chances are you're now thinking you can't remember anything at your age. But the good news is that it's a technique that doesn't rely on your conscious mind to do anything at all.
