I have the 7 day style of plastic with snap lids. They work great at home but I wanted something I could take with me that wouldn't pop open, wouldn't break if I sat on it, etc. My other meds are such that being missed for a day or two probably wouldn't be a disaster.

I've had some bad reactions to chloesterol lowering drugs so the doctor has me taking 12 fairly large niacin capsules (6,000 units) a day (can't get the 1,000 size lately) but if I missed them for a short time I don't think it would be too bad.

My lady doctor recently told me to buy Mucus Relief and that comes in a bottle half again as big as a 35mm film can and those would be a good screw top style also and would only lack the necklace feature. Actually, those are about 2-3 times the volume of the aluminum ones I mentioned and would hold all of my meds with room left over.
