Pill organizers and sorters are containers for pills that save time and improve help an individual stay organized with their daily medication requirements.

This allows an individual to pre-sort their pill dosages for the week or month ahead, saving them time throughout the week as they simply take the pills pre-arranged for that day rather than open individual bottles of pills each time.

Pill cutters are also called pill splitters, and they are special tools that safely and cleanly divide pills in half. Pill cutters and pill splitters are used to halve a medication dosage. There are also pill crushers, which are useful for individuals who have difficulty swallowing a pill in its intact form.
