I dont have medical advice for how long to store meds, but if you are trying to keep moisture out of your prescription bottle this should be the ticket. the packets are sealed so they wouldn't touch your pills. use the small cc size ones. you shouldn't need more than one for a regular size rx. if you have a big bottle put 2 or three in the bottom out of your way. don't waste money on multiple sizes these have many of them in the bag.

They are not sealed enough to be able to carry loose powder. They are great for all pills if any size. I take several vitamins multiple times daily and have had no problem with them. I take a liquid iron and calcium daily as well but I keep those in measurable jars that I found in-line as well. Those are great since I only need them to go up to 30 ml. I did not find them on amazon but all I did was search the web for small measurable jars and after searching multiple sites, I found some that I like the best. Hope that helps.

Latest news on tv says pills can be kept for years after expiration. Read up on the news..

Try out the small pack from cvs or walgreens, before you buy the large box. I didn't break out. They are just what I needed.

Definitely a question for the manufacturer, but I can say that the product is excellent. I use it for cosmetic/medicinal products, etc. Great size/price/quality.

If the Pill Pockets are the slightest old, then they won't stay together...It might dissolve the pills if you "Pre-Package them. I just have a weekly pill box that I use, and put them in a Pill Pocket at that time.Hope that helps!

Probably 1/2" X 1/2". You can easily fit at least a dozen small pills inside and 3 of the large vitamin size pills. Also, because there are 4 compartments for each day, if you only take pills twice a day, you can use the first 2 compartments for morning meds and the second 2 compartments for evening meds as well. Hope this helps

I use some from Walgreens. They are a little big but I tuck them under. It works good.

You would have to check with Amazon and Nature Made. It takes quite a while to use a bottle of vitamins and the expiration dates on current shipments would obviously change from when I purchased them.

Only the seller could answer that but if the expiry date is sooner than the amount of projected pills used everyday you could probably return it for that reason. I wouldn't plan on more than a 4 month supply per order of any medicine or vitamin. Most places won't sell unless the expiry is at least 6 months, they return to manufacturer for fresh stock.

Yes. :-) I dump all three bottle together, into one of the bottles, after I get them. Most vitamin bottles have extra room in them.

I have only used for medication and they seemed to have a tight seal, but I tried to wash on the top shelf of the dishwasher and they warped. If you do purchase you need to hand wash.

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, the problem is not how many pills a compartment can hold, but having 5 compartments in lieu of 4. My wife takes her meds 5 times a day, so putting two dosages into the 4th compartment is not working out. She only has 3 pills per each of the 5 times, so size is not an issue.

I don't know if they are "monster size." They are for capsules. I can get 2 full pills and one half of a pill in one of these if I am careful. There is also a "pill" size of the pockets which I think are smaller. Maybe you could try one pack first and see if it works. Good luck!

I would say NO. those pills are too big and the compartment too small to accommodate 9-10 pills. try the 7 Day 2 Compartment.

The lids might be a problem. I put a pill container in and the lid was a little too big. I love this thing and if you can't use it for the meds, you'll find something else.
