Avoid Arthritic Pain from Handling Pills

If you dread dealing with your medications because of hard-to-open bottles, then you might benefit from easy-open vials, pill dispensers, and pill crushers.

Pain in the hand is a common result of arthritis. And tedious activities can make it worse. If you dread dealing with your medications because of hard-to-open bottles, then you might benefit from easy-open vials, pill dispensers, and pill crushers. These items can decrease the strain on the joints in your hand thereby easing the pain you may experience otherwise.

No more hard-to-open lids

Easy Open Vials can be opened with one hand without the need to struggle with child proof or other troublesome pill bottle lids. Simply squeeze the sides of the vial and the lid pops open. If you can’t squeeze the vial due to weakness or discomfort caused by arthritis, you can open the vials by positioning both thumbs on one side while pushing the opposite side against a counter top. And the lids are attached so that they can’t be dropped and lost.

Store and dispense pills easily

The VitaVault Pill Dispenser eliminates the need to struggle with hard-to-open bottles by providing a new way to store and dispense vitamins, supplements, and large pills. Just load your pills by pouring them into one of the six large compartments, each holding sixty pills. When you lift the lower lid, you can easily retrieve your pills.

Cut, crush, and store pills safely

The Pill Crusher and Splitter does all three of these tasks easily. Use the crushing chamber to crush pills into a fine powder by simply twisting the top. Use the top chamber of the device to easily cut pills while keeping your fingers safe. Simply open the top, position the pill in the cutting area, and close the top firmly.
