PillTime.co.uk, the new revolutionary way to take your medicines, are pleased to announce that GP and Breakfast TV’s Dr Hilary Jones has joined the team as an Independent Medical Advisor. Pill Time.co.uk aims to help patients manage their medication better and get the best outcome for their health with their all new pouch system.

In the UK alone, there are 14.6 million patients who are on repeat medication. Of those, some 11.6 million are over 65 years old and will be prescribed more than five ‘regular’ items on their prescription. It is believed that some 50% of people do not take their medication correctly and this percentage increases with both age and the number of medicines prescribed. People not taking medicines as prescribed is estimated to cost the NHS £500 million every year (in addition to the enormous annual cost of wasted medication which stands at around £300 million). 

Dr Hilary Jones said: PillTime.co.uk is one of the most significant advances in healthcare for those on repeat prescriptions that I have seen. The potential for people who take multiple medications to make mistakes in timing or dosage is high and this leads to avoidable, but sometimes serious complications. PillTime.co.uk is a very reliable way to ensure that you take the right medication and at the right time.”
