Meds on the go. Storage?
Meds on the go. Storage?
I've only just recently commenced medication and I'm finding the benefits a little noticeable. The real test will be returning to work soon after some leave.
I'm interested in how people store their medication on their person whilst on the go.
My job has me out of the office regularly, sometimes for extended periods of time. I'd like to keep two doses on me should I need them, but I'm concerned about not misplacing them.
Any recommendations?
They make little keychain pill holders. They are small metal cylinders with a screw top and most pharmacy will have one.
This is the move. You can cut/pull apart a cotton ball and put some in there so they don't rattle around in there too
Plus one to this - I bought one of these early this year and it's a gamechanger. I take my keys everywhere, and I can fit a day's worth comfortably.
Depending on size of the pill and need for discretion, there are earplug cases that have a main compartment and a smaller one for spare parts. But nothing beats a real keychain pillcase if they're large or you need to keep multiple sets.
I got mine from Ali Express pretty cheap.
When I got my Steam Deck I started looking for a bag to carry it in. I found this Tomtoc Bag https://amzn.to/48FBA6j and it ended up being a nice way to carry it, my kindle, and meds. Being a guy it’s kinda hard to find something like a purse but not a purse because of stereotypes.
It's a SATCHEL

My wife has coined it my “Man Bag” in a rough Wild West draw.
These are by far my favorite, easily fits in my pocket (about the diameter of a US quarter) and it can’t come open while it is in there.
I keep an extra pill bottle with me and if there is more that one type of med in it I label the pill box so I have record if questioned.
Though I've never been questioned LOL 🤪
