Comment Re:Change the dosage without changing looks... (Score 2) 64
I work with elder mentally disabled patients and chances in medication can be quite stressful for them. "I ALWAYS have two of those pills, why do I need to take three pills now?" or "This does not look like the medication I usually get, I don't trust this, I'm not taking this!"
It confuses them and at times it can be quite a struggle to get them accustomed to a new medication schedule. So I can see the advantage of changing the dose without changing the appearance or quantity of the pills.
However, even though that can be very annoying I'm more worried about me being able to quick and clearly tell the difference in pills and dosage.....
