Understanding the Daily Dosage Rings
Your Smart Pill Dispenser comes with 9 different rings, corresponding to the number
of times per day that medication needs to be dispensed. The rings are designed and
recommended to help you in laying out medication in the internal pill container, so it is
properly dispensed. The internal pill compartment has 28 slots for medication.
To use the Daily Dosage Rings, choose the dosage ring that correctly indicates how
many times per day you need medication dispensed. Then, place the dosage ring in the
center of the internal pill container with the tab in the starting compartment (indicated
by the blocked space in the compartment) before you start filling the dispenser with
medication.
Once the dosage ring is properly situated, the alternating colors help you to distinguish
between days. For example, if you are using the 2x Per Day ring (meaning medication
only needs to be dispensed at two different times each day), this will accommodate 14
days’ worth of medication.
The blue numbers to the right of the tab are the first day’s medications. The white
spaces are the following day’s medications. The colors alternate so that days do not
get confused. The space marked “1” is where you would put the first dose for that day,
the space marked “2” is where you would put all medications to be dispensed at the
second time, and so on. The pill compartments should accommodate all necessary
medications for that time in a single slot.
DO NOT PUT MEDICATION IN THE SLOTS INDICATED BY THE RED SPACES.
THE RED SPACES ON THE DOSAGE RINGS INDICATE THAT THOSE
CORRESPONDING COMPARTMENTS ON THE TRAY WILL NOT BE USED FOR
THE SELECTED DAY CYCLE.
These spaces indicate unused compartments. For example, if you need medication
dispensed at 5 different times during the day, the ring can accommodate 5 days or
25 medication times. 3 slots are left over. These leftover slots are indicated by the red
space, and this is why there are substantially larger red areas on the 5x per day and 6x
per day rings than on the 2x per day ring. Do not put medication in those slots.
