Dosette Box Dispensing

We offer weekly pill organisers (often called dosette trays) to help patients who struggle to manage multiple medications or who have complex dosing schedules.

What is a dosette box?

A tool to help you with your medicines.

A dosette box is a tray that organises your medication into specific days and times (morning, noon, evening, and night). This helps ensure the right dose is taken at the right time and makes it easier to see if a dose has been missed.

Eligibility & Assessment

Weekly organisers are not suitable for all medications or all patients. They are also labour intensive, and we’re not provided any additional funding to support this. Therefore, to ensure this is the safest and most effective option for you, we require a consultation to discuss eligibility.

  • Clinical Assessment: Our pharmacists must assess whether your specific medications are stable enough to be removed from their original packaging.
  • Equality Act: We prioritise those with a clinical or cognitive need for a compliance aid under the Equality Act.
  • GP Coordination: Your GP must agree to move your prescriptions to a 7-day (weekly) cycle before we can begin the service.

How to enquire

If you or a family member are struggling to manage medication, please contact your local branch directly to speak with a member of our team. Unfortunately, we can’t guarantee availability of our dosette dispensing service due to high demand.
