Rex For Patients

Iconoculture: Never fear, Rex the Talking Bottle is here. His mission: Fight prescription dosage mixups by recording and repeating patient instructions. This bit of technical wizardry from MedivoxRx Technologies lets patients, caregivers, or pharmacists record directions into the bottle’s recording / playback device using an accompanying recording station. When it’s time for their meds, patients press a button and get the 411 on what’s in the bottle and how much and when to take it. With audible directions, there’s less chance of accidentally taking the wrong meds or fatal pill concoctions. Rex is a clever device for the visually impaired, illiterate, or foreign language speakers. But it’s also handy for those on complicated drug regimens, like people living with AIDS, and Matures with aging eyes.
