The BetterRX comfort kit is thoughtfully put together to optimize medication use, decrease caregiver confusion and anxiety, as well as simplify use across as many patient demographics as possible.
In these cases, less is more. Below you’ll find considerations for when you’re creating a comfort kit.
Keep the number of medications to a minimum to decrease confusion.
Choose medications that treat multiple symptoms to avoid the need for multiple comfort kits.
Provide some educational materials to those who may need it.
Utilize medications already at home & know that your contracted pharmacy has same day delivery.
Be sure to utilize and have convenient storage options.
Make sure there is an ease of dosing and that there are multiple routes of administration if needed.
Make sure substitutions are easily converted to equal dosages.
Keep medication costs in mind and take time to compare costs at different quantities.
When you sign with BetterRX, we can do a ‘Comfort Kit Audit’ with you to help you reduce product waste!
Additionally, we’ll help you find a local pharmacy so you won’t need to order ‘just in case meds’.
Note: Lorazepam tablets are recommended instead of the concentrate. This is because the concentrate requires refrigeration and loses potency if left out. The tablets are small and easily absorbed sublingually.
