Phoenix, AZ, August 28, 2012 -- Why was the MED-Q Automated pill dispenser invented. Lee DeMar was managing a Phoenix-based nursing agency, he continuously over heard nurses getting frustration because their older patients were not taking their medications properly and were returning back to the ER time after time.

The need for a 21st century programmable pill dispenser became apparent. Medication non-compliance — which has been called by the Wall Street Journal “America's other drug problem” — causes unnecessary emergency room visits and other avoidable medical expenses to the tune of 300 Billion dollars per year. Improper medication management also causes in excess of 125,000 deaths each year....

The Med-Q Pillbox is different than any pill organizer on the market today. It is a self-contained, "all-in-one" electronic weekly pill organizer, medication reminder and programmable pill dispenser all rolled up in one. According to DeMar, “The Med-Q Pillbox features a user-friendly design that people can actually use without being afraid or intimidated at an affordable price.

The Med-Q Pillbox has two alarms that makes forgetting or double dosing virtually impossible. After the simple programming process, the MED-Q will start brightly flashing in the individual compartment that needs to be taken while an escalating alarm can be heard from the next room. The two alarms makes forgetting impossible and the flashing lighting the individual box makes MED-Q error free.

Med-Q's programmable pill dispenser system, according to DeMar “is a technology breakthrough for individuals, families and caregivers struggling too adhere to their daily medication regimens and live an independent life.”

With 90% of people making medication errors, per The World Heath Organization, the goal of the Med-Q alarm pill dispenser is to eliminate medication errors.
