Why a Text Message Is the Best Pill Reminder
You will read it. Ninety percent of text messages are read within three minutes of being received. A pill reminder text message from RememberPills.com arrives the same way a text from a friend does โ and it requires an active response to dismiss.
A 2017 study found that people forget their medications 44 to 46 percent of the time and experience medication delays 80 to 85 percent of the time. A pill reminder text message changes both of those numbers โ directly, immediately, without a prescription or a new device.
The NIH has documented that automated medication reminders โ including text message reminders โ improve adherence by up to 70 percent. That is the difference between a managed condition and an Emergency Room visit.

Our MyPillCircle™ feature lets you manage pill reminder text messages for multiple family members from one account. If a reminder goes unacknowledged, you receive an alert automatically.
What It Costs
RememberPills.com costs $1.99 per month. Your first 30 days are free. That's less than a postage stamp per day โ for a pill reminder text message service that can prevent a $15,000 Emergency Room visit.
Will the pill reminder text message work on my basic cell phone?
Yes. If your phone can receive a standard text message, it will receive your pill reminders from RememberPills.com.
Can I set different reminder times for different medications?
Yes. You can set up as many reminder times as you need, for as many medications as you take.
How is this different from setting an alarm on my phone?
An alarm requires you to set it, not silence it, and not dismiss it out of habit. A pill reminder text arrives from outside your phone โ the same way a text from a friend does.
Can a family member receive a copy of the reminder?
Yes. Through our MyPillCircle™ feature, designated family members can be notified if a reminder goes unacknowledged.
