This week for our regular check in with Glasgow based Pharmacist Elizabeth Roddick it is all about keeping on top of our medications. 

RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey began by asking Elizabeth about why we need to take some medications before or after eating, and whether some drinks or food have an affect on the medications we take.

Ending with some hints on the best way to keep track of the medications you are taking including a couple of accessible pill pots that are available from the RNIB online shop. 

More details about the two pill pots can be found by visiting the following pages of the RNIB online shop - https://shop.rnib.org.uk/collections/pill-organisers
