Decorative Pill Boxes: Plastic, Silver And Wholesale
By:
Published: May 8, 2007
Prescription pill bottles, with their sticky direction tags and bothersome childproof lids, are arguably the most unattractive items floating around in purses and disgracing bathroom counters. There has to be a better way to package these life-saving little capsules. And so there is! In fact there are as many kinds of pill boxes as there are pills to fill them.
For the practical approach, a seven-day plastic pill box is compact, not too flashy, and it will silence the haunting question, Did I take my pills yet today? According to www.activeforever.com,
ten percent of all hospitalizations are due to medicine being taken improperly, as well as over 125,000 cardiovascular- related deaths alone. Using a pill organizer can help people who take medications on a regular basis not to be counted in the fifty percent of patients who fail to take their medicine as directed. The three dollar Ezy-Dose Pill Reminder is a plastic pill box made up of compartments labeled for the seven days of the week. There are several sizes to choose from, depending on the size and number of pills the patient takes each day.
Over the counter medicines like Tylenol, Sudafed, Benadryl and Zantac are a hassle to bring on vacations if kept in their bulky bottle. However, it's impossible to know who will get sick and with what symptoms; it's better to be safe than sorry. The small and colorful four-part Travel Pill Box is a perfect defense. The name of the medicine in each section should be written in permanent marker or masking tape to avoid accidental mix-ups.
Wholesale boxes can be found online at very inexpensive prices for unique Easter basket items, party favors, or stocking stuffers. Various styles of wholesale boxes—faux fur, leather, sequined, polka dotted—can be found at FashionWholesaler.com for $3 a piece. Business owners and marketing professionals—especially those in health-related fields—should consider this creative giveaway. Extra Mile Promotional Products will print promotional emblem on wholesale boxes for under a dollar each, but a purchase of at least two hundred and fifty pill boxes is required.
While regular plastic pill boxes are generally priced under $5, trendier and more stylish can get a little more expensive. A designer silver pill box equipped with a lipstick mirror, shaped like a purse, or divided into separate compartments can be found at ForgetThePill.com for between $9 to $40. JewelryBasket.com sells various styles of solid 14k gold pill boxes for those willing to pay over $700. These stunning items are a far cry from the bottles the pharmacist hands over, and they are created to be seen—not hidden in a drawer. An engraved monogram can personalize valuable gold and silver pill boxes, and will likely memorialize the trinket as a family heirloom to be prized by generations to come.
French history lovers and antique aficionados will be intrigued by Limoges porcelain pill boxes. These beautiful ornaments became popular to fill with medications in eighteenth century France. Each of these beautiful pill boxes is unique, and cost about $150 at Limoges Boutique. A popular Indian designer has created a more modern version of the decorative pill box. Mushkis pill boxes are all hand crafted into beautiful structures, like a miniature treasure chest, using unique materials including bone, brass, velvet, bamboo, and marble. Any bathroom counter or vanity would be graced by either of these exotic styles of decorative pill box.
Keeping a copy of all pharmacist's directions and lists of potential side effects on hand is important. However, whether organization, style, or both are the patient's motivation for swapping ugly pill bottles for perfect pill boxes, there is no question about the advantages. Pill boxes can save a life—and make a fashion statement!
