I have difficulty opening my medicine container what can I do?

If your medicines are in bottles you can ask your Pharmacist to replace the child proof tops with easy open tops. There are also aids available to help open medicine bottles (see below). It is important that medicines are stored in a suitable container. If you feel it is necessary to take your tablets out of their original container then a tablet reminder box may be the answer. These can be filled at home by family or friends or your Pharmacist may provide this service for a fee.
