Description

   Intelligent drug management system   

The invention relates to a medicine management system, in particular to an intelligent medicine management system suitable for the field of home care.

There are many civilizations and diseases in modern people, which makes a lot of medicines to be used in old age, and the way of medicine management only relies on the doctor to inform the medicine users or their families. When family members take medicines home, they usually put the medicines directly into plastic pill boxes on the market according to the number of days. Due to busy work, some family members will hire multiple caregivers to take care of the shift, but the patient has multiple diseases and needs to take various medicines, and the medication time of each medicine is different, such as before, after, and during meals. Daily time or before going to bed, so it is difficult for multiple caregivers to record the medication status of their predecessors during the shift, and it is difficult to track the status of medication use, resulting in serious inconsistency of the remaining medications, and family members cannot understand the patient clearly Medication status. However, the current electronic pill boxes on the market can only meet the basic requirements for medication reminders, and cannot track the medication status of caregivers and the medication status of patients from beginning to end.
