Just wondering how others keep up with being sure they are 'current' with pills?

When I started Femara, I got a 10 supply from VA that day and then my 3 month supply came in the mail (gotten more months since). What I do is every Thursday after I take the last one in the bottle is to put 7 more in the bottle so if I forget - I can look and see the number.

Just wondering how ya'll handle being sure and/or have tips .

    weekly pill case
    I have one of those inexpensive 7 day weekly pill cases (each day is labeled and has its own compartment). They cost about $4 and you can get one at any drug store.

    Every grandmother has one ;-)

    Seriously, I have to use one or I would never be able to keep it straight.

    I have a daily alarm set on
    I have a daily alarm set on my cell phone - and I keep one of those little car calendars (got one from my bank) by my pills - and cross out the date once I take the meds . . . yeah - if I didn't do that, I would definitely be wondering . . . "did I take that pill today or not . . .???"

    :)
