2. The Philips Medication Dispenser holds up to a 40-day supply of medication. The
number of days that can be loaded depends upon the number of doses taken per
day. For example, if the patient requires 3 doses per day, you can load up to 20
days’ worth of medicine into the dispenser.

3. Once you have determined how many days to load, make sure that you have
enough medication to cover the time period. This will depend upon the number
of pills that are taken each day. For example, if the patient takes 2 pills a day and
you want to load 7 days’ worth of medication, then you will need 14 pills.
# of pills per day x # of days to load = number of pills required
