Abstract

Abstract—An Automated Medicine Dispenser using IoT is a part of IoT technology that takes on the challenge of medication non-adherence for daily medication schedules especially for aging population. Non-adherence to medication results in negative health outcomes, higher rates of hospitalizations, and consid- erable costs to healthcare. To ensure that medicine is delivered on time and accurately, the project integrates different hardware components such as a motor-driven dispensing mechanism. The project uses both audio and visual alerts to inform users when they should take their medication. This enables patients and caregivers, as well as clinicians care providers to instantly monitor medication adherence which is supported by the devices IoT connectivity. The dispenser is also designed to be easy-to-use and user friendly and aims at elderly patients who have a hard time managing the complexities of multi-medication schedules. The Dispenser offers a reliable solution for improving medication management. Index Terms—Automated Medicine Dispenser, IoT, medication adherence, elderly care, healthcare technology, real-time moni- toring.
