MedReady 1700 Automated Medication Dispenser
The MedReady 1700 Automated Medication Dispenser is a reliable, non-monitored automatic pill dispenser designed to help individuals manage their medications with ease and precision. Equipped with a built-in alarm system, this device ensures that patients never miss a dose by providing timely reminders when it’s time to take medication. Shipping is free to USA customers.
The MedReady 1700 is ideal for patients who need a simple, efficient way to stay on track with their prescribed treatments, offering both audible alarms and secure storage for up to 28 doses. Its user-friendly design and tamper-resistant features make it an essential tool for enhancing medication adherence and promoting better health outcomes.
- Sound alert reminds patients when it’s time to take their medication
- 28 compartments, each with a capacity to store up to 9 M&M-sized pills
- Secure, tamper-resistant lid ensures medication safety
- Easy-to-set alarms with the built-in digital alarm clock
- Powered by an electrical outlet with an included backup battery for reliability
How It Works: Enhanced Medication Reminders and Secure Dosing
Every MedReady model features a built-in low-frequency alarm to signal medication time with a buzzing sound. For models with a flashing light, a visual alert is also provided. (This model does not come with a visual alert. For visual and audible alerts, choose the 1700FL model). Opening the dispenser’s door stops the alarm sounds and visual cues.
To ensure safety, only the latest dose is accessible, and the tray rotates to the next scheduled dose with the following alarm. If a dose is missed, the dispenser locks that compartment and advances to the next dose, preventing access to previous doses.
Key Features of MedReady
Security
MedReady offers top-tier security with a tamper-resistant design. Instead of relying on a latch, it uses a robust lock and key system to ensure the safe storage of medications. This key-only access allows caregivers to load the unit and track patient adherence, providing peace of mind that medication is securely stored and managed.
Medication Information Storage
MedReady includes a practical card holder located at the bottom of the unit, allowing you to store a printed copy of all prescriptions for medications housed in the dispenser. This feature provides quick and easy access to important medication details when needed, enhancing organization and accuracy.
User-Friendly Alarms
Setting the timers and alarms on MedReady is as easy as using a digital alarm clock. The straightforward setup process ensures that patients and caregivers alike can quickly program medication reminders without hassle, allowing for seamless daily use.
Reliable on Good and Bad Days
Whether you’re at home or traveling, MedReady is designed to work reliably. The unit includes a rechargeable nickel-metal-hydride battery pack that ensures continued operation during power outages or while on the go, providing up to 48 hours of backup power. It also functions using a standard 120V AC household outlet, so you can depend on it in any setting.
Safety Features
MedReady prioritizes safety by automatically switching from AC power to rechargeable battery backup in the event of a power outage or when traveling. This automatic transition ensures that the device continues to function, preventing any disruption in medication management.
Clear and Visible Clock
The MedReady dispenser features a large, easy-to-read LED display, which is self-illuminating for clear visibility in all lighting conditions. The clock is designed to be viewed from any angle, ensuring patients and caregivers can always check the time and dosing schedule at a glance.

What a fantastic and high quality product. It has save the day for my family! It works, unlike a product that I purchased earlier from XXXXX (redacted to not smear our competition). It is so easy to use and manage. I love the flexibility of a second tray with a lid. That saves me tons of time managing the meds. as I can fill the tray at home and then head over to my brother’s house and swap out the trays in less than a minute. THANK YOU!!! GREAT PRODUCT.

One Amazing machine!
I purchased this after having numerous problems with a smaller device from another company. This device is large, but it is actually a benefit – my patient does not try to tamper with his “flying saucer” as he did with the other machine. He also used to remove the batteries or pry up the cover, and neither of those happen with the MedReady!
I like having the flexibility of up to 4 alarms. I also have heard such positive comments from VNA, and other agencies that visit him regularly. This device can help him be independent and SAFE, and those are two very important things to us.

This pill dispenser has been a lifesaver. My mom kept forgetting to take her medications & there were times that she would double dose because she would forget that she had already taken her meds. This dispenser eliminated that problem. My mom’s health has improved a great deal because she is able to take her medications at the same time everyday. I called the phone # the staff was extremely helpful. It’s a GREAT product and worth every penny. We are very happy with it
