Does anyone use poison pill rings to keep their meds in them?

@adhd

If you do, what are some potential issues I might have with keeping my #adhd #meds in a locket ring? How can I tell if a ring's secret compartment will be big enough? (For context, I use Amoxetine (generic Strattera), which is only available as a caplet)

My wife has a poison ring, about the only thing it is large enough to hold is a Claritin, maybe two. It cannot even hold a generic ibuprofen.

Thats pretty sweet, it reminds me of the Soviet era cyanide fake tooth pills. Which would actually be kinda handy for an emergency Excedrin like after a night of drinking.

I have Earpeace plugs and the container is hanging from my keyring, the lower compartment holds pills nicely.

Arent the meds heat sensitive and shouldnt be stored over 37°C (or something usually around room tenperature)?

Haven't heard about them being heat sensitive more than any other pill, but eg. Elvanse capsules start to dissolve if they come in touch with moisture causing them to become fragile, so I'd put a bit of cotton or paper if I were to stash those.

Think I read in the package manual (in Germany we call it Beipackzettel) that the meds shouldnt be kept for long durations above a certain temperature. And I believe that was somehwat around room temperature.

@nokturne213
Thanks. The pictures give me a pretty good idea of the scale of these things.
