# Automated Medication Packaging The 'AutoMed+' Oral Syrup Dispenser Provides the Exact Dose By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2017-01-10 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oral-syrup References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2017/01/09/medicine-made-easy-by-shima/) The 'AutoMed+' oral syrup dispenser is an innovative packaging design that looks to automate the experience of taking liquid medications. The existing design of syrup medication packaging consists of a bottle with an included dosing cup. This is somewhat inefficient as it can be easily lost and isn't conducive for those who have hand tremors that make it difficult to pour, bad eyesight or Alzheimers that causes them to forget doses have been taken. The 'AutoMed+' packaging is outfitted with an LED film that indicates when a dose has been taken to ensure the user remembers and that they keep track of how much they've had. The 'AutoMed+' oral syrup packaging is the design work of Shima Jahani and Ali Mahmoudi. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.9/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 69% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Automated Medication Packaging:** Opportunities for disrupting the medication packaging industry by automating the process of taking liquid medications. - **LED Film Indicator:** Utilizing LED film technology to create smart packaging solutions that help users track medication intake. - **Assistive Packaging Design:** Developing packaging designs that cater to individuals with hand tremors, bad eyesight, or memory-related conditions to enhance medication experience. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Pharmaceutical Packaging:** Creating disruptive innovations in medication packaging by incorporating automation and smart features. - **Healthcare Technology:** Leveraging LED film indicators and assistive packaging design to improve medication adherence and management. - **Elderly Care:** Exploring innovative packaging solutions to address the medication challenges faced by the aging population. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Accessible Pill Dispenser Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solopill.md) - [Friendly Medication Dispenser Units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mymemo-pill-dispenser.md) - [Wall-Mounted Medication Dispensers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cadence-medication-dispenser.md) - [Child-Friendly Medication Dispensers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/singing-bottle.md) - [Dosage-Managing Medicine Boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/medeasy.md) - [Efficient Healthcare Packaging Add-Ons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solid-packager.md) - [Medication-Holding Bedside Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/automatic-pill-organizer.md) - [Connected Medication Reminder Holders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ownum-pod.md) - [Private Label Pill Dispensers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vitamin-dispensing-system.md)
