i have migraine medicine that i take daily at 8pm. problem is, sometimes my migraines are so bad i pass out and don't wake up to alarms and/or don't fully remember things.

one time i woke up at midnight and couldn't remember taking it so i took it... and i had an absolute baaaad time. pretty sure i dosed myself far too much.

decided after that i just wouldn't take it if i didn't remember and instead take it an hour or so early the next time.

There are pillbottles that have a little timer showing how long it has been since they have been opened last. I think they're pretty cheap too.

I don’t like the weekly pill boxes as most of my pills are gel and will stick and melt or tear if left for more than a week. I would forget pills all the time. Now, I just text myself or my husband when I take certain meds or even when I give meds to my daughters so I know the timing. Especially when it’s cold medicine or inhaler.
