If you need meds two times a day, how long does the cycle last before it needs refilled?

The dispensing ring has 29 slots for pills but of course 1 is to be left empty for your starting point. If you program it to dispense 2 different times daily, it would need refilled every 14 days. You get an extra dispensing ring so you can have one ready to drop in when its time. It can be programmed to dispense up to 6 times daily which is what my Mom's is set to do. Unfortunately this only allows for 4 1/2 days before a refill is necessary. However, it has worked wonderfully for my situation and 4 1/2 days between refills is definitely better than making 2 trips per day to my parents house to deliver medications.I HIGHLY recommend this product.Cheryl The dispensing ring has 29 slots for pills but of course 1 is to be left empty for your starting point.

The e-pill MD2 Automatic Pill Dispenser (SKU 993019) holds 28 medication events (each up to 20 aspirin sized tablets per event) Mom takes meds 5 times per Day ==> 28 events divided by 5 events per day = refill this e-pill Medication Reminder every five days. You can pre-fill the 2nd tray and switch them out after 5 days. Some patients switch the trays themselves in this e-pill. Two trays are included with this e-pill Automatic Locked Pill Dispenser system.

Depends on how many times a day you use it...recommended dosage is twice a day.

How many do you take in a day. I take two Echinacea tablets a day, and I can fit about a 10 day supply in the large compartment.

Actually both sides hold 14 day supply for twice a day meds or 7 day supply for 4 times a day meds

You only have to fill it once a month. Plus you can take that days with you if needed. Plus you can see in if you missed a dose. Enjoy. We all do. Great gift fir a friend who uses a lot of pills.

You only have to do it once a month. If you go on a trip, your pills are already sorted and ready to go with you. If you don't mind having to mess with your pills every day, don't waste your money on this. I have to take several meds, some weekly, some daily, some every other day. It's much easier for me to do it this way rather than trying to remember every day which pills need packed.

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

Oh, I take two at night! You can get 10 mg doses, although I have not found them in the timed-release version. Please just know that I am not clinically or medically trained.

There are 28 compartments. Assuming the daily dose of pills for the 5 medications are small enough to fit into one compartment, and that they are all taken at the same time, 28 days. If some pills need to be taken in the morning and some in the evening (requiring two alarm settings per day), then you would need to refill it every 14 days. In this case, you would load the pill dispenser with morning pills and evening pills alternating in every other compartment, so each time the alarm sounds, the appropriate pills (morning or evening) would come into view. This is the way we use the pill dispenser, so we refill it every 14 days. There are 28 compartments.

I guess it would depend in how bad your attack is... For me when I am having a bad few days I will use one tube a day. But it's usually noMore that 3 days in a row.

I use it once a day..about 'two pumps' from the bottle. I think the bottle lasts about 6 weeks.

Yes, unless you double the dose; then you take it for 45 days. You begin taking it again if you start having symptoms again.

It's one of those supplement that you can take 2 times a day and thy recommend that so u go thru the pills faster, but I do once a day about 30-45 min before workout because they mostly help u get a better workout. If I don't workout I just take it once a day. It's 3 pills per dose

Actually, the "1hr Express" strips are meant to be used once a day until your supply is gone. It says so on the back of the box, "Use once a day for 1 hour.", which is not the same as the Two-Hour strips. I even called customer service to make doubly sure, and they confirmed this. Use once a day until you run out, (or space it out more if you are experiencing serious sensitivity issues), and do not use more than 2 boxes per year (so use one full supply no more than every 6 months). The results are dramatically better this way, but it's confusing since they "replaced" the Two hour strips.Hope this helps!
