There are special medicine boxes. You can also set a corresponding reminder in your phone

There are different situations. Older people may not always remember or be able to take medicine. It depends on the state of health and disease. My father is paralyzed after a stroke. I spend a lot of time at work. I found hospice care philadelphia not far from my home to help my father receive the help he needed. So he received all the necessary medicines and qualified care.

My parents are also not young and I am very worried about them. They live near me and I often visit their home and can control the medication intake myself.
But not all medications can be taken alone. Recently, my father was diagnosed with growth hormone deficiency. He was examined at Optimal Hormone Therapy Medical Center https://www.optimalhormonetherapy.com/clinics.php
The father was prescribed injections. For this, I brought him to the medical center.

Older people may experience distraction and forgetfulness. Therefore, you can call during the day and remind them to take the medicine.
