If the dizzy can rejoice, this new intelligent pillbox, the IMedipac was especially designed for people “polymedicated”, mainly over 65 years, who consume at least 4 drugs each day. It will indeed allow them to follow their treatments scrupulously and to avoid forgetting tablets.
This weekly pill organizer, designed like a book, contains 28 medicine compartments. Thanks to a system of LEDs and audible alerts, it informs the user that it is time to take his treatment. Capable of sending reminder emails and SMS, it allows you to respect the time of taking medication day after day and throughout the day and to secure the taking of the treatment. Manufacturers hope that their innovation will reduce medication errors, avoid waste and make treatments more effective.
Indeed, this pill organizer also synchronizes all the information related to the patient and can even “communicate” with the health professionals concerned in the event of forgetting.
This smart pillbox made by a French start-up will be marketed in a few months, but its manufacturers have not yet announced a price.
While waiting for its release, you can already equip yourself with GlowCaps or Glowpacks from Vitality, a smart cap that screws onto the medicine bottles and that informs in light and music that it is time to take your treatment.
