If I had to take more than 1 I would use a pill box! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-regular-medication#post-2055573 Thu, 05 Feb 2015 11:41:23 +0000 LovelyPlum 2055573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use a weekly pill box and take mine right before bed. It sucks if I have to take meds at a different time, because then I always forget! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-regular-medication#post-2055566 Thu, 05 Feb 2015 11:39:12 +0000 mrbee 2055566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I leave the pills in the fridge, as a visual reminder! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-regular-medication#post-2055562 Thu, 05 Feb 2015 11:37:42 +0000 Greentea 2055562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I take my thyroid med asap in the morning like @mrs. bird:!</p> <p>DH uses a pill box though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-regular-medication#post-2055556 Thu, 05 Feb 2015 11:36:18 +0000 mrs. bird 2055556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no, i am supposed to take my thyroid med a while before eating anything or taking vitamins, so my alarm to wake up acts as an alarm for that </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-regular-medication#post-2055514 Thu, 05 Feb 2015 11:17:23 +0000 Mamaof2 2055514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I set an alarm on my phone </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-regular-medication#post-2055509 Thu, 05 Feb 2015 11:15:32 +0000 autumnlove 2055509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaryM: I accidentally took 2 metformins this morning! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-regular-medication#post-2055504 Thu, 05 Feb 2015 11:14:15 +0000 MaryM 2055504@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. I take 3 pills at night, so it's just part of my routine (metformin, allergy, and acid reducer). In the morning, I take another metformin (though I admit I don't always remember that) and allergy drops. I think it would be harder to remember if I had to take something mid-day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-regular-medication#post-2055500 Thu, 05 Feb 2015 11:13:33 +0000 MrsKoala 2055500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I take it right before I go to bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-regular-medication#post-2055498 Thu, 05 Feb 2015 11:12:58 +0000 autumnlove 2055498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you use a pill app with reminders or use a weekly pill box? I have a pretty good memory but it sucks when it comes to taking medications! </p>
