G'day All,

I was at a meeting in Adelaide last week where a GP from S Africa
mentioned using cheap electronic watches with built in larm times to
remind patients to take their anti-retrovirals.

has anyone sourced them here, and for example got them stocked in their
local community store?

If so, how much and who supplies them?
