I have been trusting a nurse to put my pills in my pill pack so I won't get them mixed up. This morning I found more than one error in my main seizure pills. The error was that the the pills was supposed to be taken 2 pills twice a day. I found out that the day meds were correct, but the night pills only had 1 pill in the pack for this medication.

I say this keep things different and organized.
Have different bottles or size bottles to keep track.
Some come in small like once a week bc there's not that many.

I do have a nurse coming in to do my meds. I'm just getting started so no mistakes. I'm glad you discovered that error. I will double check mine today.
I went back doing myself! 😊 the pharmacy knows requests now. I got 30 day supply do each week. Grateful pharmacy knows my changes and needs. I put Motown music to pack my meds. Fun!
What I do is I fill my pill box once a week and follow what the bottle says. If there are any changes I write it on the bottle.
