Dosette Box Service – Murrays Chemist, Harrow
Simplify Your Medication Management with Expert Support
Managing multiple medications can be overwhelming, especially if you take several prescriptions a day. At Murrays Chemist in Harrow, we offer a structured Dosette Box Service—also known as a Monitored Dosage System (MDS)—to help you take the right medication at the right time, every time.
What is a Dosette Box?
A dosette box is a weekly medication organiser that clearly separates your tablets by day and time of day (morning, afternoon, evening, bedtime). It’s an ideal solution for:
-
Patients on three or more daily medications
-
Individuals with memory issues or cognitive difficulties
-
Carers supporting family members or vulnerable patients
-
Anyone who struggles with managing complex medicine regimens
Robotic Precision: Printed Medication Details
Our dosette boxes are now dispensed using our automated robotic system, which provides:
-
Accurate dispensing using NHS-approved protocols
-
Printed details of each tablet’s name, shape, size, and colour directly on the box
-
High-quality labelling to help you or your carer identify each medication with ease
-
Enhanced safety and compliance monitoring
Cost of Service & Eligibility
-
The Dosette Box Service is charged at £30 per calendar month (includes preparation, checks, and packaging).
-
This charge applies unless your GP issues weekly 7-day prescriptions (in which case the service may be funded).
-
Home delivery is available for eligible patients receiving regular MDS packs.
We always aim to support patients with genuine medical need. If you feel you may be eligible for NHS-funded blister packs due to clinical circumstances, please discuss this with our pharmacy team.
