Medication Management Solutions for Multi-Home Families

Any co-parent can share stories of how tricky it can be for their children to transition between houses. Did they leave their laptop at Dad’s house? The book report due tomorrow is likely on Mom’s kitchen counter. This is life as a co-parent, and while it gets easier with time, the first couple of years can be challenging.
Co-parenting with children moving between homes is amplified for children who regularly take prescribed medication. Apps such as Medisafe act as a digital pillbox, including reminders, alerts to family members for missed doses, and pictures of pills. Sagely Smart Pill Boxes (available on Amazon) offer no-spill boxes that can be sent as individual days or even whole weeks. Best yet, the box is accompanied by a support app providing regular reminders.
Amazon pillpacks provide sealed labeled doses by date and time, allowing for just the right amount of medication to be sent to each household. Emergencies can occur. It is important that your parenting plan has protocols for missed doses, emergency numbers should an overdose occur, and agreements about who can give medicine and how.
