And the article didnt say the oldies have to text, the product would text them.

What we need is help paying for them. We oldsters don’t need help remembering to take our pills. What we need is help paying for them.

Hormonal birth control, for example, tends to be very fickle about when you take it.

It's funny reduce a product to a Polish invention, but this could actually be useful to a lot of people. Ah, what, none of you people take pills?

The average senior citizen is on more than 5 different medications (prescription and non-prescription drugs). They may be on 8 to 10 medications per day in some instances as well.

No machine is ever going to replace that. I work in a pharmacy and it's clear that some old people aren't all there and either take too much (sleeping,anxiety, or pain meds) or they don't take it at all (cholesteral, blood pressure memory meds) Then you get the rare 85 year old who knows more about their meds than the average 30 year old knows about theirs.
