Dear Ms. Burchett:
I would like to thank you for sending me a supply of the Medibottles for our Pediatric HIV/AIDS clinic patients. The mothers with young infants and toddlers who need to give the medications to their young children have found them very helpful.
I was able to bring an example of the Medibottle and some of your information and the video to the Pediatric AIDS Clinical Trial Group meeting in Washington, D.C. in July. We discussed the usefulness of the Medibottle in giving the medications to infants and toddlers with HIV at the Study Nurses Staff retreat. Many felt this would be a useful way to help parents and caretakers administer the difficult medications to the children, especially in light of the difficulty with adherence to these medications. We had an example of this bottle at the "Adherence Fair" as well.
Thank you for sharing the innovative and useful "medibottle" with us. I look forward to recommending it for other parents and caretakers of infants and children who may have difficulties in giving medications to their babies.
Sincerely,
Maripat Toye, RN, MS
