Travel Compact Pill Organizer

This organizer keeps 20 sets of meds organized and accessible without taking up valuable space in bags. The clear pouches are very nice, but I also grabbed mini ziplock medication bags which also fit neatly in the slots. That way I can hold my am/pm meds along with my wife's. It also has spaces for additional meds and accessories. I used the additional ziplock medication bags to stock aleve, sudafed, bandaids and other likely needs. It never fails that I end up wasting vacation time finding a drug store for something, This is thin and slips into a pocket or alongside packing/compression cubes. I've always hated how much space normal pill containers waste. There is also space and a card to put med list and history. Very nicely made. I also love that it was HSA/FSA approved so I could use those dollars.

I was looking for a system that would allow me to arrange a week's worth of supplements at a time, remove a day's worth at a time, and fit into my little purse or other thin bag without bulging out and keeping its contents secure. Other systems involve hard and/or more 3 dimensional containers. I was looking for something more discrete. This system works perfectly as each zipped plastic pouch is virtually flat and easy to slide in and out of anything I am using and remain unobtrusive. The zipped closure at the top of each pouch is strong, secure and easy to use. The plastic pouches are thick and strong as well, and while the overall dimensions of the system are rather large compared to other systems, it is light weight, and fits well into my med bag. The ease and convenience it provides is great. Since I take supplements at various times of the day, I simply use Bagettes (found here https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000XANWWK/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1) to separate early morning doses from later morning ones, and afternoon doses from evening ones within each plastic sleeve (AM and PM). This allows me to very easily remove what I need from a pouch without disturbing the rest of its contents. I use the sleeves numbered "8" to store extra doses of Niagen (if you don't know what that is, you owe it to yourself to find out - Niagen, nicotinamide riboside, is the precursor of nicotinamide mononucleotide, which Dr Sinclair has been working on for the last few years at Harvard, and has just announced he is getting ready to release, in conjunction with a pharmaceutical company, as a "drug" to REVERSE AGING - IN THREE YEARS. They are starting human clinical trials - this is amazing, and Niagen is part of all of this - look it up! These are exciting times!). Back to the review: Niagen is a very important part of my regimen and this system makes it easy for me to make sure I always have some on hand along with everything else I need and use. It allows for everything to be easily carried and easily accessed when needed, keeping everything protected and safe. This system has made it much easier for me to organize and take a day's worth (or more) of supplements with me wherever I go, fitting the pouches into whatever I need them to fit into, discretely and without any hassle. Added bonus is the very large pockets either side accessed through the zipper on the outer spine.

I purchased this pill case for a recent two-week trip to Italy. I was packing things very compressed, so a hard shell pill case with lids wasn't going to work - I needed something that would sit as flat as possible. There are 16 zippered and numbered plastic pouches that fit in this case. If you take meds once a day, this case is perfect for a two week trip with a couple of spare pouches. My problem was that I took meds twice a day, morning and evening. On a 14-day trip, this case really would have been short a few pouches. The solution for me was to use small 2x2 plastic ziploc bags (which can be purchased here). My morning pills went into the ziploc and the evening pills went loose into the case's pouch for the same day. This allowed me to carry the two week supply and have some room to spare. This case has a zippered compartment on the outside. I used mine for a pharmacy printout of my medications, in case there were questions at airports or customs (there never were on my trip). The best part for me was fitting this nice, very flat and compact case into the "carry-on closet" of my suitcase, which compresses the contents to fit more in a smaller space. If you're traveling and need meds, don't carry a plastic box - use this.

Great idea and will be useful on my upcoming trip with my daily vitamins and RX. However, someone wasn’t careful with placing the proper zipper bag. I will just use a magic marker for the 3.

This is the second one I have purchased as a backup or extra during extended travel. Works great and helpe me keep track.

This is the third one of these pill organizers that I’ve purchased. I bought two when I was going on a two-week trip, and misplaced one after I got home. (I’m sure that it will turn up now that I’ve bought a replacement.). These organizers take up almost no space in luggage, they don’t open accidentally (unlike those plastic flip-top pill organizers), and they help you keep track of whether you’ve taken your pills when you’re dealing with “what time zone am I in, and what day is it?” travel brainfog. The two negative points are that the little plastic bags are a pain to fill, and the bags can split along the seam. (Only one of mine did, and I’m not sure why. It was only a partial split, and the bag was still usable. I wish replacement bags were available, though.). If you have a lot of pills, I recommend sorting them out beforehand, and then putting all of the pills for each day into the bag at once, rather than opening and closing the bags for each pill. (I used my plastic flip-top pill organizer, then dumped the contents of each day’s container into the appropriate bag of the travel organizer.)

UPDATE. After Using the new version I must update that this product HAS lost some of the quality upon which I based my re-purchase. When sliding the “zipper” like closure, the slide comes off the envelop at a concerning frequency. As I said in my earlier review, I used the older product for many years and know how to work the closure, so pretty sure it’s not operator error. At the outer edge of the envelope of the older set, the is a slight rise in the plastic that acts like a stopper. This is missing from the newly purchased set. It is VERY difficult to get the piece back on and when you do it will always come off again. I kept track of the ones I have had to cut open to get meds out & then toss ALMOST 1/2!! OOPS!! Downgraded from 5 stars to 3. Another previously excellent product now not worth the money. first purchased this product just over 10 years ago for use on a rather long cruise. I liked it so much I used it at home and after 10 years I still do-every day. Same set of three. I have used them on subsequent trips and also on shorter overnighters when a take an individual envelope out and slip in my purse. In all that time not one problem. Not a single “zipper” tab came off, not a single stitch loosened and the fabric is just as nice now as when new. Only purchased these new ones because at last the envelopes look a little sad though still quite functional. I have customized their use, filling them all when the last is nearly empty and leave post it notes inside if a medication will need refill at that point. Keeping medications organized and easy to use is so important and so time consuming. Finding something that works this well is a genuine help. Was glad that after a ten year lapse between purchases there was no reduction in quality. In fact the old and new ones look identical other than the small label. I usually only do reviews if something exceeds or fails to meet expectations and these exceed expectations and a are very good value.

Makes travel with meds. super easy

Love this! Bought two one for travel and one for home. So easy to grab and go for all or just one pack if im running late. Have to take my meds with food and so many times in the past if late i forgo the meds till im home cause i dont have time to make food. So this way have meds with me when i have a chance to eat something. Got the 8 and 16 count size so as it stands im good to go for 48 days without digging into my pill bottles. And filling not a huge issue just take your time and refill when ya got time. Well worth the purchase. Also bought extra plastic lewis and clark pouches just to have extra in a case if the days away on a trip extends past 8 or 16 days. This also fits nicely into the medicine safe lockable travel bag from amazon. So now i can have everything all in one spot plus the medicine bag allows for extra storage of pill bottles. So finally have a great system in place for home and work and travel.

Very pleased with these items. Quality fabric and do a great job.
