Ok fedi hivemind, #advice requested. I have to carry around a fairly sizeable number of pills in my pocket for extended periods, more than can be handled by a keychain pill bottle. I have been just using an old pill bottle, but these pills are tablets not capsules and the motion of them in my pocket is slowly but surely rendering them into dust. Any suggestions? Surely someone else out there who is ADHD needs to carry around a bunch of pills so they don't forget them at home. #FediHelp#HelpWanted#BoostsWelcome
@intransitivelie There are services now that work with your pharmacy that can package your meds into single blister packs! Ask your pharmacist and they can help set it up.

I might actually use little mini zip lock bags I happen to have. One pill per bag, then a bunch of bags in a pill bottle. I can reuse the bags too. Hadn't thought of this, so thank you for the suggestion! 🙂
@intransitivelie @Victang
Yaaas! This sounds like a good scheme. You can get all sorts of tiny (circa 1") lil ziploc kinda bags in the craft section of a dollar store etc.
My other thought was lining your pill bottle with a lil roll of flat felt. Also craft section theme.
@intransitivelie do you happen to live in a cannabis legal area?
The eighths that you buy come in little black plastic tubs with a very tight seal. You could EASILY fit one in your pocket with plenty of pills safely.
If you do some searching online, they are the same containers being used to airdrop medicines and other things in hostile territories so they are plenty rugged.
@mentallyalex
It's not the ruggedness of the bottle that's the problem, unfortunately. It's the fact that it allows the pills to rattle around inside it. But thank you. I may look into them if I can figure out how to keep the pills from moving inside them.
