Pill reminder text message launched

"Ms Jennings, 31, said she had always set an alarm clock to remind her to take the Pill at 2pm every day, but this led to questions from other people when it went off during business meetings or lunches.

"The idea came from my own experience of trying to remember to take the Pill at the same time everyday."
