  • Patent number: 5752621
    Abstract: The general purpose of the device described herein, the Smart Automatic Medication Dispenser, is to aid medical patients who must consume several types of medications several times a day for long periods of time. Often, due to daily diversions, it can be difficult for a patient to keep a running record of the amount of medications and the times at which they must be administered. The specific purpose of this computer controlled dispenser device is to provide a convenient vehicle and means by which properly proportioned medication doses are housed and automatically delivered to the patient in single complete doses. This user friendly and expandable dispenser will deliver medication in the proper chronological order and at the precisely correct/prescribed daily time intervals for a nominal period of one full week. Included in this device are comprehensive patient alerting capabilities, including familiar voices, all coordinated with medication delivery.
