Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a liquid medication dispensing apparatus. The apparatus includes a housing including an inner cavity and a cap operable between an open position and a closed position. A cartridge assembly is configured to be inserted in the inner cavity. The cartridge assembly includes a support structure, a mounting platform, a nozzle base including a nozzle, and an intermediate body portion coupling the support structure and the nozzle base while maintaining a gap therebetween. The apparatus includes a control unit disposed in the housing. The control unit is configured to receive a first signal from a circuitry associated with a dispensing button, upon detection of an input on the dispensing button. Upon receipt of the first signal, the control unit provides a command signal to a drive mechanism for retrieving a liquid medication from a medication bottle and extrude the liquid medication through the nozzle.
