Smarter Pill Bottle Caps

Filed under: Geriatrics , Medicine , OTC

Glowcaps are a simple solution to an old problem of daily medication compliance by patients of any age or size. Designed to remind people to take their daily meds, the standard pharmacy bottle sized caps keep track of when they're opened and remind patients with a blinking light to take the pills inside. If the patient doesn't comply, the cap plays a regularly repeating ring tone until it gets its deserved attention. The caps are finally available for purchase through Amazon at $30 a pop.
