Abstract

Improved systems for monitoring patient compliance with medication regimens are provided. The systems note when unit doses of medication are dispensed to a patient and include a detector (4, 6, 8, 10) for generating a signal each time a unit dose is dispensed as well as a signal processor (14) which can act upon the signal. The devices include a flexible conductive substrate (12) physically supporting and connecting the detector (4, 6, 8, 10) and the processor (14) into a unitary structure and conducting the signal from the detector (4, 6, 8, 10) to the processor (14). In preferred embodiments the flexible conductive substrate (12) employs flexible conductive organic materials.
