Between daily supplements and medications, my midlife pill arsenal has become extensive, and this seems to be the case across the board for those of us who are 40+. Having a good storage case and pill cutter on hand might seem superfluous, but it\u2019s actually a simple way to stay organized and make your life surprisingly easier. Reviewers have been singing the praises of this $14 pill cutter and storage case combo<\/a>, and my interest is officially piqued. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This multifunctional pill splitter is a must for anyone who has pets, children, difficulty swallowing large pills or needs to adjust pill dosage by cutting it. It makes cutting even the tiniest pills possible, thanks to the adjustable holder and blade.<\/p>\n

One of the most distinctive (and functional) aspects of this pill cutter\u2019s<\/a> design is that it can split tablets into halves, thirds, and even quarters. As someone who has crushed and ruined countless pills for myself while trying to cut them down, this is a must-have. It can even halve or quarter multiple pills at the same time, saving precious time and energy. Not only is it accurate, but it is also safer to use than other models that often have an exposed blade. The blade in this cutter is tucked away and only activated when you press the pill cutter closed.<\/p>\n

One reviewer<\/a> said, \u201cI recommend this unit especially if you are paying through the nose for your medications!\u201d since it is less likely to ruin pills than other cutters. \u201cIt\u2019s great for cutting pills that I don\u2019t need a full size of, like for cholesterol or heartburn. Cheap investment for getting more out of your prescription too, providing your doctor approves,\u201d another<\/a> enthused.<\/p>\n

More than one person<\/a> said it\u2019s the best pill cutter they\u2019ve ever owned, saying<\/a>, \u201cIt works perfectly.\u201d<\/p>\n

As if that weren\u2019t enough, it pulls double-duty as a pill case<\/a> thanks to a small storage space in the bottom of the splitter, making it easy for you to tote around your daily dose of medication without having to lug around additional storage. You can discreetly slip it into a pocket or purse without being weighed down.<\/p>\n

The cutter-and-case is made with BPA-free materials and comes with a cleaning brush to sweep up any crushed powder, which not only keeps it tidy and fresh but also helps avoid potential medication mix-ups that could have adverse effects. They really thought of everything when they were making this one. <\/p>\n

Take a look at what other reviewers think of this innovative pill cutter and pick one up for yourself. For under $20, it\u2019s likely to become an essential part of your medication routine and it won\u2019t make your bank account suffer. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis works great. I\u2019ve never seen a pill splitter that cuts into thirds and quarters. I appreciate that it\u2019s adjustable to hold the pill in place. As a retired nurse this is the best pill splitter I\u2019ve used. Definitely recommend.\u201d \u2014 MJS<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cBest pill cutter I\u2019ve tried!! This thing is great!!! Does a nice clean cut, no crumbles. Has options for several different cuts as well. Pills stay in place when you cut them do no odd cuts either. Super happy with this purchase!!\u201d \u2014 Sarah C.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cWow. This thing is absolute perfection. Crazy easy to use for its intended purpose. Sturdy. I actually recommended it to others. I love it\u201d \u2014 Lucy Mc<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cThis pill cutter is wonderful. Such an improvement over my old cutter that only has one function to cut pills in half. This new one does halves, quarters and thirds, and it\u2019s great for cutting pills that I don\u2019t need a full size of, like for cholesterol or heartburn. Cheap investment for getting more out of your prescription too, providing your doctor approves.\u201d \u2014 JF<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cSo glad I got this! Make my life so much easier with pills to cut for myself and several for my cat.\u201d \u2014 Renee<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a great pill cutter. I bought this pill cutter because my other one smashed my other pill that I was supposed to take into several pieces instead of just half. So I looked for another one. I seen this one and bought it. When I got it I was impressed by its looks. After I used it is so nice. It works perfectly. I am so glad that I bought it.\u201d \u2014 Pat<\/a> <\/p>\n

Walmart<\/p>\n

A cushioned no-slip bath mat <\/p>\n

Need a no-slip bath mat<\/a> for inside the tub? This is Walmart\u2019s top seller, with almost 5,000 customer ratings, most of which are 5 stars. The suction-cup bottom ensures it stays in place and the foam padding is comfy to stand on. Find it in three colors. <\/p>\n

Promising review: \u201cThis is a very comfortable bath mat for showering. I have purchased this mat many times \u2014 not because of a quality issue; this is a great product. My bathroom is very humid and I had to learn how to control mold. It provides a nice grip and does not feel slippery even after using all the products during an \u2018everything shower.\u2019 There are a lot of suction points, so it’s best to set it in place, with some moisture on the bottom of the tub, and walk all over it to make it stick. I pull it up and stick it to the shower wall every day, using just the suctions at the top of the mat, to prevent mildew. I have found that this makes them last much longer. I’ve used all three colors they offer, currently using white. That’s a brave thing to do during the summer sandal season, but it still looks great!\u201d \u2014 Vienna<\/a><\/p>\n

Walmart<\/p>\n

A long-handle bathing sponge <\/p>\n

Trying to wash hard-to-reach body parts in the shower can make you feel like a human pretzel. This sponge<\/a> is attached to a 20-inch handle, making it easy to wash your back and lower body without having to bend over. One customer who left a review said she has two: one for the shower and another that she uses to apply lotion to her legs afterwards. <\/p>\n

Promising review: \u201cEasy-to-use and the long handle lets you reach all of your back. and legs. It’s great for seniors with disabilities or anyone with disabilities.\u201d \u2014 Marie1<\/a><\/p>\n

Walmart<\/p>\n

A rotating shower stool<\/p>\n

If standing in the shower makes you feel dizzy or unstable, it\u2019s worth it to get a shower stool<\/a>. This one rotates completely around and takes up minimal space. The rubber no-slip feet ensure it stays firmly in place. <\/p>\n

Promising review: \u201cThe adjustable height, rotating seat and the size of the seat all make this the perfect shower stool for me. I’m large and have a small tub, and this stool straddled the side of my tub so that I could sit outside and spin and swing my legs in after surgery on a tendon in my left ankle. Once I could put some pressure on my left heel, I moved the stool to the inside of my tub, where it is now.\u201d \u2014 Paminia<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Between daily supplements and medications, my midlife pill arsenal has become extensive, and this seems to be the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":867190,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[58],"tags":[97,2976,243,520],"class_list":["post-867189","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-medication","tag-health","tag-home","tag-medication","tag-shopping"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/867189","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=867189"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/867189\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/867190"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=867189"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=867189"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=867189"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
