As one MedReady client's daughter told us: “she does not like the alarm on her med dispenser, however, it is working well for her and she is no longer forgetting to take her medications.”
Many clients get confused about their medicaions, and sometimes can't remember if they took them. Then they get embarassed or anxious. This leads to folks skipping a dose, or taking an extra doseage. With a MedReady automated pill dispenser, you take the guess work out of taking multiple medications several times a day. Peace of mind and better compliance for everyone.

The MedReady Automatic Pill Dispenser is easy to use:
1. Loading Medication
A. To open, first use the key to unlock the lid. Note: the key cannot be removed in the unlocked position. Next, rotate the lid clockwise slightly and easily lift the lid off. With the AC adapter plugged in to both your electrical wall socket and the unit, press the ALARM TEST button. This will cause the tray to rotate and the alarm to sound. Slide the “T” bar forward to the “X” to stop the alarm from sounding.
B.The medication for each dosage should be placed in 28 of the 29 cups of the removable tray. Leave the first cup empty to serve as the marker and first cup that appears at the dispensing bay when MedReady is activated. To conform to any regimen, a different cocktail or combination of medications may be placed in each cup. The medication should be distributed in a counterclockwise direction since the tray rotates clockwise. Using the included filling ring makes this easier!
C. In some cases the tray may be filled with medication when it is removed from the unit. After following the instructions in step B above, place the tray with the empty cup to the right of the “T” bar. Press the test button to ensure the blank is in the displayed position and again slide the “T” bar forward to the “X” position to stop the alarm from sounding. Sometimes it may be necessary to repeat this operation until the empty cup is in the dispensing bay position. When you put the lid back on, the empty cup should be showing when the slide is moved.
2. Setting Time of Day The Cellular MedReady will automatically sync with the time of day, but can also be programmed manually.
A. Set the time of day by pressing and holding down the TIME button with on finger while another finger presses the HOUR button until it advances to the correct hour.
B. Continue to hold the TIME button down while you advance the minutes with the MIN button.
C. Keep the TIME button down while you press AM-PM to select the time of day.
D. A PM hour is shown by the single bright dot to the upper right of the clock. AM hour is identified when this bright dot is off.
E. The clock’s time is set as soon as the TIME button is released.
3. Setting Dispensing Time
Setting alarms is very similar to setting the clock! But can also be done with our optional online portal. Here's how to manually adjust the dispensing times.
A. If one or more of the medications is to be taken at different times in a 24-hour period, you will need to use more than one alarm. To set the first of four alarms press and hold down the alarm 1 button. Keep the alarm 1 button down while another finger advances first the HOUR and then MIN buttons.
B. Press AM-PM to set an AM or PM time.
C. Repeat these steps for setting alarms 2 through 4 for the next three deliveries of oral medication if needed.
4. Locking the Lid
After the click and dispensing times are set and the medications are organized in their cups, replace the lid over the tray and rotate it slightly counterclockwise to latch. Use the key to lock the lid in place.
