Abstract

An electronic dosage reminder incorporated in a medicines container which gives an audible or an audible/visual indication to a patient by way of a reminder as to the proper time and, optionally, amount of medicine to take. The electronic circuit chip (1) can be programmed with dosage and timing information manually by the patient or doctor using buttons (23). In an alternative embodiment, the programming can be effected at the dispensary using the programming fixture based on a standard desk-top computer and using electrical connections between the fixture and the timer. <IMAGE>
