Medication Adherence Monitoring

Adherence to medication is critical for the effective treatment of a variety of medical problems. Unfortunately, non-adherence is a widespread problem that can result in poor health outcomes, higher healthcare costs, and a lower quality of life for patients. Utilizing sensors, the system determines the number of pills present in the pill box and wirelessly transmits that information to which is used further computation. When the data is received, it analyses it to see if the pills level has decreased below a predefined threshold. If it does the data over the internet will send a notification to the designated application, which can be accessed by both patients and caregivers. The technology seeks to help patients and caretakers manage medicine and stick to the prescribed regimen by sending frequent reminders to refill the pill box. The patient outcomes, hospitalization rates, and overall health and wellbeing could all be significantly improved by this technique.
