Managing medicines

For more information, visit the Parkinson’s UK website (last updated July 2026).

Medication management equipment can help some people with Parkinson’s who take several medications over the day:

• Pill organisers: can help you arrange and store your medication. This can help you take the right medication and dose at the right time
• Pill ejectors: used to push a pill out of its packaging
• Pill cutters: can help split pills into smaller sections, making them easier to swallow*

*You should not use a pill cutter unless directed by your health professional as this could lead to taking your medicine outside of the terms of its licence.
