[Missouri-l] Prescription labels

[John and Donna Weidlich]

I recall that a few months ago, we were talking about the device called the Script Talk machine that reads prescription labels. According to the July issue of Talking Book Topics Walgreens pharmacies are supplying blind and visually impaired customers with a free Scrip Talk machine that reads pre-printed information on medicine containers. It reads the dose instructions, patient information, side effects, refill information and prescribing physician's name through a sensor that the walgreens pharmacis places on the container. The device is about the size of a portable CD player. It runs on double a batteries or an electric adaptor. so if you are using Walgreens for prescriptions, you might want to contact your pharmacy to find out about this. John
