Perhaps, in a way, he wanted this. To see just how focused Sasuke was on him, after his absence.
Itachi had ridiculous ways of showing that he wanted to be cared for. He was perfectly capable of taking his own medicines on time, and re-filling his own prescriptions, and monitoring himself for his flare-ups. Though he was busy, he had time for quick meals, he could plan out his sleep schedule around small naps instead of basically trying to stay permanently awake.
Yet, for all of his intelligence, wisdom, and capability, he did not.
"Before I left." he admits. Before he left originally. Which means by now, months ago. His excuse was that he was on missions, and he couldn't be taking pills every hour or so and expose himself to being taken advantage of.
Even though he could easily hide them in his drinks and food.
