MDS weekly box service
For those who have complex medication schedules or have trouble keeping track of their medication, we offer a Monitored Dosage System Tray. This is a medication storage device like the one pictured below with sections for each day of the week and compartments for morning, afternoon, evening and bedtime medicines. One of our pharmacists will fill the tray with the medication the doctor has prescribed for you. The compartments are easy to open and the whole system is disposable, thus hygienic as you receive a new pack each week. This can be helpful to show if for example the morning slot is empty, that you have taken your morning medication. There may be a charge for this service.

- If you have partial sight.
