Remote Controll Pill - Philips ePill Delivers Drugs Precisely on Demand
Philips ePill Delivers Drugs Precisely on Demand

Pharmacists and Doctors want drugs to be released at a certain level and prefer the dosage to be controlled at that level. To take the effort out for pill-poppers, a remote-control pill could accomplish this goal, and the e-Pill from Philips seems to be the answer. The pill will carry the drug to where it can do the most good and then be released by remote control.

One will be able to track the passage of the pill using ultrasound or MRI, having the drug dispensed at the right moment thanks to an electronic trigger. Unfortunately, I don’t think this idea would work out well for homebound folks since how many laypersons will be able to afford an ultrasound or MRI machine for use at home? In addition, the drug can also be programmed to be released based on different external factors - such as the patient’s blood pressure level or whenever atmospheric pollen reaches a certain level.
