Need to see if my pharmacist can order my meds in blisters. Then label these in daily dose zip locks. I use the blisters for storing over-the-counter meds in my kits and EDC. I can't buy Claritin and Immodium in anything besides the blisters anyway and this keeps them from being crushed.
As far as the metal capsule hanging around my neck goes, I just put Claritin and Lorazepam (Ativan) in them. It contains a small vial. I curl instructions around the vial IDing the meds, what they are for, and what dosage to give: Claritin for Anaphylactic Shock and Lorazepam for Epileptic Seizures.
Now I have to figure out how to put something on the capsule to I.D. to some EMT what it is. And BELIEVE me, as much as I respect the profession, I was responded to by some real clueless EMTs who, if I wasn't actually partially conscious at the time, would have never even known how to read my medical alert necklace which was engraved on the opposite side: I had to turn it over for them. Engraving on the outside of the capsule, perhaps?
