DOSING OF (Parkinson's) MEDICATIONS

Re. Dosing of Parkinson's Medications (News Letter Volume 9 Number 1):

Time of dosing is very important. It is even more of a challenge when you have issues with memory or are very active. There are many ways to alert you that it is time to medicate (no particular order):

  • Set alarm clock
  • Set wrist watch to beep (or vibrate / vibrating alarm watch)
  • Obtain medication pill box that can be programmed to alarm or vibrate.
  • Program your cell phone (or smart phone).


  • The vibrating pill box is great when there is a hearing deficit. Patient compliance is fundamental for continued overall function when you have a PD diagnosis.

    Ask to see some examples of pill reminder products when you come for your PADRECC clinic visit.

    Call 1-800-549-0095 for a catalog of ideas or check the website www.epill.com [or www.medclock.com].

    An occupational therapist can also be consulted to help you find an appropriate pill reminder system, and teach you how to use it.
