The communication unit 16 communicates with an external device, downloads a medication administration program, and installs it in the control unit 12. Hereinafter, each function will be described based on the screen image of the medication administration program displayed on the display unit 14.
(Setting of drug taking conditions)

  FIG. 3 is an example of a GUI screen image for setting the medication taking conditions. When the user activates the medicine administration management program and selects “medicine schedule setting”, a medicine administration condition setting screen 20 for registering the first medicine as shown in FIG. 3 is displayed on the display unit 14. From this screen, the user operates the input device 10A to input the medication timing information 24, the medication frequency information 26, and the medication detail information 22 as the medication medication conditions as described above. The user manually inputs each item while looking at the cautions written on the surface of the medicine bag containing the medicine to be taken. In addition, a specific item can be selected from a pull-down menu for easy input. Alternatively, a lookup table in which representative drug types and their medication conditions are recorded as a set is prepared in advance, and the medication conditions are automatically input by selecting the drug type. Also good.

  In the example of FIG. 3, “medicine type”, “number of times taken” 23, “time of taking”, and “number of times taken” are displayed in order from the top. The “medicine type” designates the name of the medicine as detailed medication information 22 for specifying the type of medicine. However, as long as a plurality of medicines can be distinguished in addition to the name, it can be specified by the function, shape, color, size, etc. of the medicine. For example, it may be displayed by function such as “headache medicine” or “antipyretic”, or by shape such as “capsule medicine” or “tablet medicine”. It is also possible to identify a combination of a plurality of these feature types. For example, an image of a medicine can be written together with a photograph or an illustration so that the user can visually identify the medicine. The “number of doses at one time” 23 also designates the number of tablets to be taken at a time as the detailed dose information 22.

  On the other hand, “time of taking” is taking timing information 24 indicating the time of taking a drug, and is information that is central in setting drug taking conditions. Here, “twice in the morning and evening” is set as an example, and the details of each morning and evening dosing time can be automatically set from the dosing timing detail setting column 25 according to this setting. This time can be adjusted and changed to an appropriate value by the user or doctor. Moreover, when setting the dosing time related to a meal such as after each meal, before each meal, during each meal, the setting screen shown in FIG. 4 is automatically switched, and the dosing timing detailed setting column 25B is set with the taking time before and after the meal, Set the time for each meal. Since the medicine medication notification is executed in accordance with this setting, an approximate meal time is designated for each user on this screen.

  Finally, the number-of-dosing information 26 is set as “the number of times taken”. In the example of FIG. 3, the number of doses per day is automatically set according to the setting at “time of taking”, so the user inputs the number of days corresponding to the given drug. . In accordance with the number-of-dosing information 26, the control unit 12 repeatedly performs the medicine-taking notification, and automatically stops the medicine-taking notification function when the designated number of times or days have elapsed.

  The designation of the number-of-dosing information 26 may be displayed not by the number of days of the medicine but by, for example, the total number of medicines given or the total number of times of taking. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. In the example of FIG. 5, the right triangle is displayed on the start date and the left triangle is displayed on the end date, and the dosing period is highlighted. The number-of-dosing information can be displayed or set by such a timeline schedule display, or can be switched according to the user's preference.

When the input of the medicine taking condition is completed, the setting is confirmed by pressing the “Next” button 28, and the medicine taking condition of another medicine can be set. At this time, the medicine taking condition setting number 30 provided at the upper right of the screen in FIG. 3 is counted up. In this example, the medicine taking condition setting number 30 is automatically set according to the set number. That is, “1/1” is displayed when one drug taking condition is set, and “2/2” is displayed when setting of the second drug taking condition is started, and the third drug taking condition is set. When “3” is started, “3/3” is displayed. However, these numbers may be directly edited by the user. As described above, the medicine taking condition is repeatedly set for each medicine to be taken. When the setting of the drug taking conditions for all the drugs is completed, the “medicine schedule setting” is ended by pressing the “end” button 32. In the case of correcting the medicine taking condition, the user can return to the previously set medicine taking condition screen by pressing the “return” button 34, and the “next” button 28 or “end” button after the correction. 32 is pressed to reflect the correction contents. Alternatively, it is also possible to jump to the medicine taking condition setting screen 20 for a desired medicine by directly changing the medicine taking condition setting number 30.
(Message 36)

  The control unit 12 displays a medicine taking message 36 on the display unit 14 according to the medicine taking conditions set as described above. An example of the medicine taking message 36 is shown in FIGS. FIG. 6 shows a medicine taking message 36 when the medicine taking time is designated. In this way, when the designated time is reached, the medication take notification is executed, and information on the medication to be taken, here, the type and number of medications are displayed on the display unit 14 together with the current time. The medicine set at the same time is displayed together in one medicine taking message 36. If it cannot be displayed on a single screen, scroll the screen up / down / left / right to display it. Alternatively, the amount of information that can be displayed on one screen can be increased by reducing the screen. For drugs that do not strictly require the time of medication, for example, medication messages within one hour may be displayed together at one time so that the medication message is not displayed frequently. Accordingly, notifications of medication taking during a certain time period can be notified collectively, and the user is free from complexity.

  On the other hand, FIG. 7 is an example of a medicine taking message 36B in the case of a medicine related to meal time. Since the meal time is not always the same every day, an instruction such as “within 30 minutes after dinner” is displayed as a medication notification at the time specified by the user. In this manner, by changing the medicine taking message according to the taking timing information 24, an appropriate instruction can be notified to the user.

  FIG. 8 shows an example of a medicine taking message 36C in which a medicine image 38 is written. Here, an image 38 corresponding to the shape of the medicine “XYZ tablet” is displayed together with the medicine name, and the number of medicine images 38 is changed according to the number of medicines to be taken (in the example of FIG. )it's shown. As a result, the user can visually recognize the type of medicine, which leads to prevention of mistaking. Also, the present invention is not limited to this example, and an actual medicine photograph may be displayed, or if the display unit 14 can display a color liquid crystal or the like, it may be displayed in color, thereby further ensuring visual recognition. .

In addition, when the last medicine medication message is displayed according to the medication frequency information 26, the user can be notified that this time is the last notification. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, an end message 39 can be displayed, and necessary information such as continuous use and periodic medical examination can also be displayed. As a result, the user can grasp that the dose has been completed, and can examine subsequent treatments as necessary.
(Drug taking management program)

The medication administration program for realizing the above functions can be installed on the portable electronic terminal 100 owned by the user and executed stand-alone. As a result, access to the server or the like is not required after installation, and the user can use it with peace of mind without worrying about leakage of personal information such as an e-mail address. The medication administration program is described in a program language such as JAVA (registered trademark) or C. Preferably, a JAVA (registered trademark) program can be executed on any portable electronic terminal without depending on a hardware environment such as an OS. Further, since the program size is relatively small, there is an advantage that it can be suitably used as a program to be downloaded and executed.
(Issuance of user ID)

Next, a mode for distributing and installing this medication administration program will be described with reference to FIG. The drug dose management system 400 shown in this figure includes a server 42 installed by a distributor of a drug dose management program, a computer 44 arranged in a pharmacy or a doctor's office, and a portable electronic terminal 100 possessed by the user. Connected via a network N. The program distributor's server 42 holds the medicine dosage management program in a downloadable state at a download site registered at a predetermined address or URL. First, the medical institution applies to the program distributor for issuance of identification information (here, a user ID). Here, the medical institution refers mainly to the clinic or pharmacy that prescribes the drug, but it applies to all medical institutions regardless of whether a prescription is issued, and the person who dispenses the drug in the hospital without issuing a prescription In addition to the clinics that provide medical supplies, pharmacies that provide drugs dispensed based on prescriptions issued by doctors are also included. On the other hand, the program distributor issues a predetermined user ID based on the application. The user ID can be issued electronically via the network N, or an existing application method by mail or FAX may be used.
(Download drug administration program)

  These pharmacies and clinics notify the user ID and information on the download site when providing the drug to the user. The user operates the portable electronic terminal 100 owned by the user and accesses the designated download site. In addition to directly inputting the homepage address and URL designated by the portable electronic terminal 100, the user can reach the target download site by following a predetermined procedure using a menu, hierarchical format, tree format, or the like. For example, i-menu (registered trademark), J-Sky (registered trademark), EZweb (registered trademark), and the like can be used. Then, after accessing the download site, the user logs on with the presented user ID, and downloads and installs the medication administration program. Downloading and installing can also be done seamlessly. Then, the medicine taking management program is started, and the medicine taking condition setting screen 20 is called to set the medicine taking condition. If the user himself cannot perform operations such as downloading and setting, the portable electronic terminal 100 can be brought into a pharmacy or clinic window to perform these operations. In this way, the medicine administration management program installed in its own portable electronic terminal can be executed to perform the medicine administration management described above.

  On the other hand, the server 42 side verifies the input user ID with the issued user ID and confirms whether to download the medication administration program. At the same time, the program download count is totaled for each user ID, the program usage fee is calculated according to the total count, and a bill is issued to the medical institution.

According to this method, the user who is a user can access the designated server 42 and download the medicine administration management program, and then can disconnect the network connection and use the medicine administration management program standalone. The access right authentication at the time of downloading is merely a user ID given to a pharmacy or a clinic, and it is not necessary to disclose information related to personal information such as a user's e-mail address. Thereby, the user can use without resistance. Moreover, since the number of downloads can be counted by authenticating the user ID, necessary information can be managed on the server 42 side, for example, charging based on the number of downloads can be performed.
(Program distribution by physical connection)

  In addition, the medicine administration management program can be installed in the user's portable electronic terminal through a physical connection without being limited to the connection with the server 42 via the network N as described above. For example, a method for installing a medicine administration management program stored in a recording medium, a method for transferring and installing a program by connecting to an external connection device with a cable or the like can be used. As the recording medium, for example, a semiconductor memory or an optical / magnetic recording medium is inserted into a memory card slot or the like provided in the portable electronic terminal, and the medicine administration management program stored in the recording medium is installed. In addition, in the method using a cable, it is connected to an external device such as a computer or other portable electronic terminal storing a medicine administration management program so that it can communicate with a serial cable or wireless communication, and the medicine administration management program is transferred. Install. For example, this method can be used as long as it is a portable electronic terminal that can communicate with a host device via a cradle or the like. In addition, a medication administration program can be installed by connecting to a portable electronic terminal brought in by a user at a pharmacy or clinic.

  With these methods, there is no need to connect the user's portable electronic terminal to the network, so the risk of leakage of personal information is further reduced, and there is no concern about virus infection, etc. Can be installed. Furthermore, it is possible to reduce the effort and cost of registering the program in the server, and to prevent illegal copying and falsification of the program.

  According to the present invention, a program for preventing forgetting to take medicine can be installed in a mobile phone, and a notification function of taking timing can be added.
