General information

Short Summary
A German medical technology specialist is looking for sales partners and pharmacy suppliers for their unique digital solution for the safe and reliable dispensing of medication. Cooperation under a commercial agreement is sought.
Full Description
The German medical technology company is specialised in the development and distribution of medical, IT-based and digitalised drug management and supply systems.

With their comprehensive and deep knowledge, which they have acquired in almost 40 years in the business, they have developed an innovative, digital drug management and dispensing system for elderly people with polymedication, staying at home. Alone in Europe, there is a market of about 40 million elderly people.

Many people take several different medications and preparations every day. It is sometimes difficult for elderly people or those in need of care to take their medication regularly, consistently and in the right combination. This is exactly where the system comes in: The intelligent tablet holder reliably reminds to take tablets and dispenses the right tablets at exactly the right time. If the medication is not taken, the device sends a reminder. Caregivers or the responsible nursing service can also be notified directly if they forget to take their medication. The medication supply system also relieves the burden on the person taking the medication as well as their relatives and/or care givers.

Special features:
- The automatic tablet dispenser dispenses the right medication at the right time and reminds to take it
- If you forget to take your medication, the device can notify other contact persons on your mobile phone
- Overview of all medications to be taken and the correct combination of these
- Any necessary updates to the medication schedule are sent by the pharmacy to the tablet dispenser at home via Wi-Fi

The system consists of an intelligent medication dispenser, a cloud and several apps. The medical dispenser uses pouches for 7 or 14 days. The global novelity was approved by the German health insurances in November 2023.

The company is looking for sales partners in Europe and in the USA under a commercial agreement.
Advantages and Innovations

The innovative techniques uses an integrated tablet computer and reads and identifies each pouch. In case of problems it automatically informs caregiving relatives or professionals. IoT components and the cloud system insure a very high security level.
