Celebrity rehab doctor Drew Pinsky is pitching a product called the Rx Locker. It is a simple lockbox that holds up to four prescription pill bottles. The idea is that a locked container will help keep medications out of the hands of children--more specifically, teens who might swipe parental pills in hopes of getting high.
The combination lock secured container also provides privacy. Snoopy relatives and visitors won’t know what medications you’re taking if they can’t see them in the medicine cabinet. The $14.95 price tag makes the Rx Locker affordable, especially since it ships for free.
