Medical Pendants

Keep it short and clear so emergency crews can read it at a glance. Most people include:

• Your name
• Medical conditions, such as diabetes, epilepsy or a heart condition
• Allergies, such as penicillin or bee stings
• Important medications, such as blood thinners or insulin
• An emergency contact phone number

Some styles include free engraving; the listing says so.

Paramedics and EMTs are trained to look for a medical ID at the neck and wrist. The red enamel medical symbol on many of our pendants helps them spot it quickly, even in a hurry.

Choose 0.925 sterling silver, 10K gold or 14K gold. Every pendant is hallmarked 925, 10K or 14K. Our guide to sterling silver vs. 10K vs. 14K gold compares their color, durability, price and care.

Wear your medical ID every day on a chain that is easy to see. Our chain length guide shows how each chain fits.

If you have a condition, allergy or medication that emergency crews should know about, a medical ID can speak for you when you cannot. Ask your doctor whether one is right for you.
