Is there additional cassettes so that meds can be made up early and then replaced weekly?

If you are asking about the compartment that holds the pills, there is only 1 main compartment that can dispense pills & it doesn't come with a back up. You may be able to order a replacement compartment but there isn't a cover on it which will make it difficult to transport.

The dispenser comes with just one. I've looked for additional ones but haven't been able to find anyone selling just the cassette.

No there is not but the one pill container insert holds two weeks worth of pills for twice a day. Hope that helps!

Looks like they are available on the manufacturers website SKU #996030 -- http://www.epill.com/stationtray.html

Yes, there are extra cassettes that can be purchased. I didn't purchase a extra cassette because the cassette has a timer which is set to the times meds are to be dispense. There isn't a on off switch so once you set the timer it is activated. I purchased this for my 88 year old mother. It has been a life saver. She takes her medication 3 times a day, so the dispenser lasts for 9 days. Twice a day, can be set up for 2 weeks. I hope this is helpful. ADG

I just use regular weekly pill containers from drug store do 4 weeks at a time and then transfer them into cassette as needed. The way my mother in law takes her pills we do 2 weeks at a time in her cassette. Have no idea if you can get extra cassettes. This was cheapest way for us.

Depends on the size of the pills. There is a place for morning, noon, and night. I put 6 or 7 small ones in each.

I have found that when the pack is described as "7 Pack" it always comes with 7 cassettes.

Yes it does. My mother was taking her meds, then forgetting she took them, take them again. It is wonderful!!!

this machine has 28 'bins' so if you have pills 4 times a day it's one week, pills twice a day = 2 weeksit works ok - occasionally pills get stuck (esp gel caps) and the tilt-down function wasn't clear to my mom -- so I took a few pictures as reminders

The DR does. I only go the DR at first, but also added the NT. I would recommend using both as well.

same as all the other ones...get a scrip and give to your pharmacist. If not in stock, they will order them for you.

You absolutely can; however, the new sets are the same price as the refills so it's really up to you. No reason to buy a new one if it works just fine. We chose to buy a new set since the old one started leaking vit c. Still love the product though! Works really well.

Figure out how many a day you'll take times the contents of the bottle = when you'll run out. Store ALL medicines, supplements, etc in a cool place,i.e, high shelf in a cabinet, medicine chest, etc. Seems to be good quality medication, I mix it with Hylauronic acid. 1+1 / day.

Yes! So long as, hopefully noone is too fussy about sharing the mouth piece, or, you have to carry around extra ones (supplied). Recycles in around 30-60s after a result, so quick and easy to pass around.

No problem I've had my meds and supplements in them for over three weeks they are the same as when I placed them there

Sue, call the mfg. company. I did when I lost two of the pill containers (left them in Fla) and they very kindly sent me two more. Great company!Barbrnsrcool@aol.com

We have only used it for 4 times per day which allowed a week supply. I think there are 29 slots for pills, so you wouldn't quite make it 6 full days. Otherwise it would work fine. This works very well for a reminder & the alarm is handy, but is not secure to keep someone out of it who wants to get it open.

no they don't - they are glues together. You can purchase a kit to take them apart and put the tape in a new casing, but that's about it since cassette tapes are considered "old"

No this one doesn't offer that use, I bought two so that I leave one my glove box of my truck, so I all ways have pills even when I forget to bring them with me.... they do have the individual boxes available... I don't care for them but some do.. hope this helps you.

I suppose you could dump a section worth into your hand...but I think the purpose of these it to have the individual days containers. I find it really easy to set out the days pills and empty each compartment as needed... I would buy a whole, intact weekly dispenser if you don't want the convenience of using a day at a time.... I hope that answered your question. I have never tried to use it as anything other than a day at a time [and then opening up the AM compartment for morning, etc.... ]

There is not, though that would be very helpful for people with lots of cassettes and little time.
