# Countdown Medicine Timers Timesulin Lets Diabetics Know When to Reboot By Michael Hines | Published 2011-10-22 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/timesulin References: [springwise](http://www.springwise.com/health_wellbeing/insulin-pen-cap-reminds-users-injection/) & [timesulin](http://timesulin.com/) Timesulin is an innovative new tool designed for [forgetful diabetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diabetespro) who have trouble remembering when their last dose of insulin was. Timesulin affixes to the top of a regular insulin pen and [acts as a timer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tabtimer), letting you know how long it has been since your last dose. Timesulin works easily, as the clock only starts or resets if the cap has been removed for longer than eight seconds. Unlike most awesome medical innovations, Timesulin is actually in the final phases of production and will be available from the company's website and in [EU](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/melopack-solution) pharmacies sometime in 2012. Hopefully this design will help inspire other pharmaceutical companies to create packaging or equipment that reminds users when it's time to take their meds. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 6% | Activity: 58% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Countdown Medicine Timers:** Opportunity to develop innovative tools that help forgetful individuals remember when to take their medication. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Pharmaceutical:** Opportunity for pharmaceutical companies to create packaging or equipment that reminds users when it's time to take their medications. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Connected Insulin Injection Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-insulin-pen-caps.md) - [Medication Organizer Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/medication-clock.md) - [Creative Medication Reminders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/medication-reminders.md) - [Medication-Holding Bedside Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/automatic-pill-organizer.md) - [Multifunctional Sleek Pill Dispenser](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clock-pill.md) - [Friendly Medication Dispenser Units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mymemo-pill-dispenser.md) - [Injection-Free Insulin Patches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cequr-simplicity.md) - [Revolutionary Insulin Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/insulin-capsule.md) - [Integrated Smartwatch Pillbox Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apple-watch-pillbox.md)
