Tip For Ageing Prepsters

If you are getting old and taking prep (my case) you might have problems remembering if you’ve taken it each day.

My solution: get a digital pocket scale which can measure down to the gram of below, a download a journal / notebook app to your phone (ideally one which makes the timestamp of the date on each new entry). Then every time you take a pill, close the bottle, put it on the scale then note the weight. Then the following day, before taking the pill, check the weight and repeat.

If then on any day you wonder if you have taken the pill, you can just go to the app and look at the last entry. And check that the weight looks kosher compared with the previous one.

That is my system. It might not work for everyone but it does for me!

Glad that works for you, but gawd that sounds complicated. For me its just another pill along with the other 7 i take every morning which i religiously set out the night before.

Get a dosette box, gram scales look like you're a dealer

I guess that routine becomes likes a ritual and might help you to remember - but it sounds crazy. Pill boxes will do it for you if you need the help

As others have said, it's overly complicated and a real palaver. I have a couple of 28 day pill organisers for all my medications, I fill them every 8 weeks.

"A pill box is so simple "

You’re probably right! It’s just I don’t take any other medications so am not used to the routine of filling the box
