Abstract: A system for remotely managing a medication regimen includes a communication device usable by a target individual, a peripheral device that obtains biometric information of the target individual, an interactive medication dispenser, and a processor. The processor causes the communication device to enable a conversation interface associated with a virtual assistant that provides information, queries, and directions to a target individual, receives input from the target individual, information from the medication dispenser, and biometric information from the peripheral device, determines a status of management of the medication regimen based on the received data, determines a response based on the determined status, and transmits the response.
