A Stocking Stuffer That Could Save a Life

I’m absolutely enamored with the Rx Timer Cap.  It’s simple, it’s smart, it’s a clever gift, and it could help your loved ones be healthier and potentially save their life!

Medication mis-doses or missed doses lead to more than 125,000 deaths each year.  In the heat of the cold and flu season right now, it’s more important than ever to have peace of mind with our prescriptions and adhere to medication dosage instructions.

The Rx Timer Cap, a patented smart cap with a built-in LCD timer, works like a stopwatch, letting patients know how long it has been since their last medication dose.  This critical piece of information helps to immediately answer the questions of “did I take my medication?” and “is is time to take another dose?” No more guess-work with your health!

The built-in LCD timer resets itself every time the cap is opened.  When the cap is closed, it automatically begins counting up again to display the minutes and hours since the medicine was last taken.  When I tested a cap, I found it to be simple to use and to be reliable in performance.  There are no buttons to press and nothing to program, it’s truly an easy-peasy process.

Rx Timer Caps are available in multiple sizes to fit a variety of medicine bottle shapes and vial thread types, including child-resistant closure version.  The LCD display counts up to 100 hours before going to “sleep” to conserve energy and last up to two years, so they are very useful for standard prescriptions as well as occasional.

When I was first introduced to the Rx Timer Caps, I thought “genius!”  I can think of countless times when I wondered if an anti-biotic dose had been taken in adherence to the timing schedule, or if I even remembered to take it at all.  I knew right away this was a product I wanted in my household and also for my family and friends.  In particular, I have several elderly neighbors who have multiple medications that I know will truly benefit from having this product on hand.

Rx Time Caps are available at select retail and pharmacy locations, as well as online.  For more information, visit http://www.rxtimercap.com/
