Pill Boxes
Think outside the pill box
Manage meds easier than ever before.
Pill boxes are a simple way to sort pills for daily, weekly or monthly consumption
With their simplicity, pill boxes may appear to be a straightforward solution to medication management. However, beneath their apparent simplicity lies a host of shortfalls that warrant consideration...
Pill box: when simple gets complicated
Do you still forget to take your meds?
Pill boxes lack built-in reminders, they rely on user remembering to take the pills at the right time. And how will you know if and when you’ve missed a dose?
Do you need help managing your medication?
Pill boxes don't provide information to caregivers or healthcare providers whether medication has been taken or it’s time for a refill. This can be a concern for those who need support.
Do you spend a lot of time refilling a pill box?
If you’re taking multiple pills, or your medication schedule and regimen are frequently changing, sorting and refilling a traditional pill box can take hours every week.
Is handling small pills a challenge for you?
While it’s common for anyone to fumble with small pills, using a pill box could be a serious issue for individuals with impairments affecting dexterity or fine motor skills.

FAQs
The Hero smart dispenser is a brilliant HIPAA-compliant piece of hardware that helps prevent users from missing doses. We've created the first end-to-end medication management service that includes the dispenser and medication management app. Similar devices with subscription models like Philips ($60 a month) and MedMinder ($50 a month) are significantly more expensive and provide fewer features. Other options available to buy outright, like Livi ($979) and Medacube ($1299), are also costly to purchase and do not include a mobile app that allows users to interface with the Hero as the primary user or remotely as a caregiver. The subscription model allows us to offer Hero to as many users as possible at an affordable monthly price. Your subscription also includes our unlimited warranty and access to 24/7 live support for the duration of your Hero subscription term! Read more...

If you take more than 10 medications or have medications that cannot be stored in the dispenser like liquid medications and medications that require refrigeration, you can track and add 10 additional medications in the mobile app, and Hero's smart dispenser will still remind you when it's time to take them.
