Abstract - The "Automatic Drug Dispenser" project is a comprehensive endeavor aimed at revolutionizing medication management in healthcare. Medication adherence is a critical aspect of patient well-being, particularly for those with chronic illnesses or complex drug regimens. This project seeks to tackle this challenge by designing and developing an advanced automated medication dispensing system. The primary objective is to create a user-friendly, secure, and technologically advanced device that simplifies medication management for both patients and caregivers. The system's key design features encompass medication scheduling, secure storage, automated dispensing and user-friendly interfaces, the system will send a notification to the designated supplier, signaling the need for refilling the medicinal inventory.. This comprehensive approach ensures that patients receive the right medications at the right time, significantly reducing the risk of medication errors and improving adherence. Furthermore, the device's connectivity capabilities enable remote monitoring, notifications, and support for caregivers and healthcare providers. The impact of this project on healthcare is substantial. It promises to enhance medication adherence, reduce errors, provide invaluable support to caregivers, and ultimately lead to better healthcare outcomes by improving patient well-being and reducing hospitalizations. In summary, the development of an Automatic Drug Dispenser is a promising and expansive endeavor that has the potential to transform the landscape of medication management and significantly improve the quality of care in healthcare systems.
