Aspirin saved a friends life. Where is the safest place to carry it

I work construction and have difficulty carrying around any type of medicine with me. Placing pills in your pocket can cause them to be crushed and medicine bottles are too bulky. Does anyone use an accessory that makes it easy to carry pills around?

Chest tightness, if diagnosed as angina pectoris is not optimally relieved with aspirin. You are much better helped with isosorbide tablets or equivalent spray.

My wife bought me this Pill Pocket Wallet recently. It is a wallet with a built in medicine container. I carry around aspirin myself in case of chest tightness.

Maybe this will work for you too

Rather than an aspirin, why not carry gtn spray? you could leave it in your vehicle glove compartment for example. It just needs spraying under the tongue. Once opened, it needs to be replaced after 3 months.

Be sure that you do not damage the blister sealing, otherwise humidity will affect the pill..
Taking the medicine along with you will expose it to higher than recommended temperatures. I would exchange unused medicine after a month or so.

It what circumstance did aspirin safe someone's life?
