Abstract: A pill dispenser intended to prevent overmedicating and overdosing on addictive medication. A blister pack is first loaded into the device and then locked within by the pharmacist. The device is then programmed by the pharmacist according to the prescribing physician's prescription. The device will only dispense the appropriate amount of medication to the patient at a designated time interval when the correct fingerprint is scanned. The patient cannot access his or her future dosages until the correct dosing time has elapsed, nor can any other person access the medication within the device. If the fingerprint is that of the patient, a stepper motor can be used to turn the blister pack inside, allowing the striker mechanism to dispense the user's medication.
