How Do I Use the PivoTell Pill Dispenser?

The MK3 Automatic Pill Dispenser is extremely easy to use, making it suitable for elderly users. To use the dispenser, the user should follow these instructions:

1. Fill each compartment with the required medications and set the required number of alarms.
2. When the alarm sounds, the internal tray will rotate one position and the correct dosage will come into view in the opening.
3. Remove the pills from the compartment by tilting it and pouring the pills into the hand or a suitable container.
4. This will cancel the alarm signal and flashing light. Once all medication has been taken, please refill the dispenser as required.

Smart Design

The MK3 Automatic Pill Dispenser is crafted with a range of features that make it an excellent choice as a pill-dispensing aid. For example, the dispenser unlocks a single pill compartment at the allotted time and keeps the other pills in different compartments out of sight. This makes it particularly useful for users with dementia who are prone to confusion, or else users with depression who might attempt to harm themselves.

All pre-set functions (i.e. alarm times, alarm sound, etc) remain the same after the batteries are changed. Only the clock needs correcting if the batteries are left out for a lengthy period of time.
