Allertag Capsule with Medical Information Insert with Steel Chain

I am glad I bought this, I have had other medilert necklaces in the past but the paper inside was flimsy and it was difficult to include all information.I found the paper inside this allertag much stronger and very easy to roll back up tightly, so it would fit back into the container. It took 2 attempts the first time I did it, but I was not rolling it tightly enough at the beginning. This was my error, not a fault of the paper.They give you 2 spare papers for the capsule, so if you do not get it quite right the first time, you can always try again. With so much to write, I did try to roll up and put 2 pieces of paper in together, but I could not do this.You can write on both sides of the paper and it is thick/strong enough for the words not to bleed through to the other side. I managed to get information onto it re 3 chronic conditions and 6 drugs I take, along with my GP phone nos, NHS nos and a pnone nos for next of kin. Plus personal information and 4 insulin dosages, I have never managed all this in the past.Attaching the capsule back onto its lid, which is attached to the necklace was the most difficult bit, but a couple of attempts got it back in place. I actually tested the capsule by putting it in a bowl of water and it remained water tight with the paper inside completely dry. Most important for holidays where swimming or other water activities are planned. It also means you do not have to remove it when going in the shower or bath. I have found some medilert necklaces do not stand up to this test.Chain is strong and fits easily over my head and glasses. It is long enough to be hidden under clothing if so required.I would recommend this to others.

it is a good product and a necessary product for anyone with health issues. We bought this for our 2nd son who is 23 and has bi polar and is allergic to penicillin. He is happy to wear it and keeps it safe. He only wears it when out of the house and he has been very careful with it.The chain is better for a young man. Our son didn't want the medic bracelet. He preferred the chain and this does it's job and is in trend.Also we think very good value as some can be an absolute ridiculous high price.If you have a budget with no limits then fine however for the average person you should find this O.K It is a good price for this product which does what it is supposed to do.It has a decent chain thickness also so is sturdy. Not too thick or too thin

I bought this as a replacement for a flatter style of capsule, which i misplaced. I am very pleased with it and it is so much easier to access the information inside ( the paper is also larger) than the one i misplaced - also the chain is of a better quality. I am steroid dependant so easy access to information is important in case of emergency - I also carry a Utag card - which is credit card sized and has a usb connection - you put your info on it and it can be edited easily. I would also reccommend this as well.

The Allertag Capsule is extremely well made and the information leaflet insert is first class. What I did not realise is the 42cm necklace is too small. The seller Creative Watch Co. were extremely understanding and Hayley exchanged it for a longer one. A first class product from a 6 star seller who beat all expectations. They managed to beat all delivery estimates by days. A truly customer orientated company.

I bought this to replace a watch-type capsule which held my medical information. It is great. Write all your information on the pre-printed strip of paper, roll it up then insert it into the lid of the capsule, slide inside the main part and then screw it together. The capsule is nice and secure on a sturdy chain. It is slightly heavy but I have no problem wearing it when I travel on my own.

A strong and waterproof medical necklace/talisman that is NOT MADE OF CHEAP METALS. The chain is made of steel so there should be no allergy problems that can happen with cheaper metals. The capsule is about the strongest there is, and the screw down top has a rubber seal. The quality of build makes it indestructable.

I put my own typed information in the capsule. Managed to get loads of information on it. Obviously not many people will look round someones neck, but at least my son can tell people who he is with, when he feels the onset of his medical condition, where to find the information.

quite a natty little item i used while on holiday just in case. you never know in foreign countries. Hospitals wont check your necklace for info but your friends know its there and contains all the info you could need or possibly some spare cash for emergencies.
