Default anyone else?

I am having an exceptionally hard time remember ing to take 3 pills a day. I am supposed to take one when i get up in the am, one after school, and one before I go to bed. I can never remember the after school one. When I am going somewhere else after school - I always remember to throw in the pills but when the time comes I always forget.

Anyone else have this problem? If so - how do i start remembering????

I have a hard time remembering too. I split my pills into 3 different pill bottle. I keep one in my bathroom so if I didn't take it at the end of the day I see the bottle getting ready for bed. I keep another on the counter in the kitchen for morning. I almost always catch something to drink/eat in the am so hopefully I see it setting there. The 3rd bottle is in my purse for my lunches at work or if we go out to eat at night. I go in my purse a lot so that is a reminder too to take it. Even so, I tend to forget at times.

Good Luck

Kim

I got a divided med container. The ones that have the days of the week on it. That helped me a lot.

I keep mine in a divided pill box in the kitchen which helps me remember....because I am constantly forgetting...
I also keep with me a cheap little pill box that you can keep in your pocket...(for when I go to work)... that reminds me that it's there and to take it.
