MedMinder
From the Tech-enhanced Life Resource Database:
Tools for improving the quality of life as we grow older — shared by the Tech-enhanced Life community.
Summary
An "intelligent" pill dispenser. The tray of medications can be filled manually or by a pharmacy, reducing errors. Some models are locked, so pills cannot be taken at the wrong time.
This product was part of our hands-on comparative evaluations of automatic pill dispensers. Scroll down to see our detailed review.
The product performed well in the comparative evaluation mentioned above. Notable features include the ability to have a pharmacy do the filling (by sending an insertable pack). This product does not include the robotic filling capability of some of the competitors, which will be preferred by some. It has the "look and feel" of a conventional pill organizer.
Our In-depth Review(s) for this Listing
MedMinder, Maya
The MedMinder is designed to help you improve your adherence to the medication regimen prescribed by your healthcare providers. It does that by helping to organize your medication; remind you which pills to take and when to take them; and helping you to refill your prescriptions when you need to.

Tech-enhanced Life Resource Database
This is one of hundreds of products and resources in the Tech-enhanced Life database of "useful products and resources".
The theme of this collection of resources is "tools we can use to help improve our quality of life as we grow older".
We have no vested interest in any of these products or services, but we have collected descriptions of them, and organized them according to various themes relating to the challenges of aging — so older adults and their families can find useful products they do not yet know about.
Members of Tech-enhanced Life can search by categories, add reviews of the products, and see links to the manufacturer's websites where they can buy the product or access the resource.
The criteria for adding products and resources to this database is that we think they "look useful, noteworthy, and interesting", and have the potential to improve life for older adults and their families. We have evaluated some of these products, in which case you will see links to a detailed review and or to explorer discussions about the product on this page, or inputs from explorers in the comments.
If the listing does not include reviews or explorer discussions, then we have not evaluated it sufficiently to be able to recommend it or comment on how well it works. If you research this product or resource further, and especially if you try it out, please come back to this page and add your comments.
