ID Bracelet/Band : It’s Not as Bad As You Think!

FREE id-band with any size order from http://www.cadexwatch.com/!

As if dealing with a disease or health condition isn’t hard enough, now you have to display something for the whole world to see? The doctors tell you to wear a medical ID bracelet so in case of an emergency someone will know what medications you are on, what health conditions you may suffer from, allergies, and medical history, so that all the correct precautions are taken.

This of course makes perfect sense, but still after all the possible scenarios that could go wrong people still don’t comply with their doctor’s request. It is hard to wear something that will reveal to people you have a health condition, but not every ID bracelet has to be so revealing and obvious.

The e-pill CADEX watch is maybe the perfect solution for you. It looks like a regular sports watch, no big signs or words, just a regular looking watch..but it is actually much more. This watch has a regular watch face, but has an alert button which can be pressed to reveal one’s name, number, emergency contact, medical conditions, allergies, up to 12 medication reminder alarms, blood type, and more. This is a great watch because you are keeping your medical information all in one place, it is easily concealed as regular watch, and you can have up to 12 reminder alarms to take your medications daily.

Don’t miss out on an exclusive offer to receive a free medical ID On Me bracelet when ordering something from http://www.cadexwatch.com/ This promo will be going on between May 23rd 2012 to June 1st 2012.

Helpful Ways To Manage Your Parent's Medications

They took care of you your whole life, and now it is time that you take care of them.

As parents age, we as their children are faced with more responsibilities and tasks to make sure they stay as healthy as possible.

One of the tasks we may face is the organization and adherence of their medications. Whether you live close to your parents or far away, these tips can help keep your parents happy and healthy.

An Automatic Pill Dispenser May Be The Answer For your Parents.

 
 1. Make a list of all your parent’s medications and write a small description of what the prescription is used for. You can also request a "Brown Bag" Checkup with the local pharmacist . A Brown Bag checkup is when one will take all of their medications (OTC as well) and review them with their pharmacist.

2. Review your parent’s medications at each visit. Make sure the medications they are taking are not outdated and make sure all are refilled at the correct times. 

3. Consider getting a pill box timer or medication dispenser for your parents. This will keep them compliant and will help them avoid medication errors.  
For those whose parents live far away an e-pill MedSmart Plus may be a good idea. This is a monitored automatic pill dispenser that will alert you if after 60 minutes the dose was missed.

Helping a parent or parents manage their medications can feel like a huge burden, but by following these tips it doesn't have to be.
