Bormioli Pharma Design Contest WINNERS
Makers Department have won the Desall x Bormioli Pharma Dispenser Design competition!
We will be working together with Bormioli Pharma to develop our entry, MediClicker: “a simple yet smart device designed to reduce the stress of taking medication and helping patients keep on top of their doses and pill stock”.
A sneak peak of our entry. Our smart dispenser is connected to an app, making it easy to keep track of medication.
Runners up were Micaela Alvarado Eslava & Cèsar Augusto Lòpez Torres Chicoma and Francesco Castiglione Morelli & Dario Carlesi
Brief: design a tablet dispenser capable of releasing medication in a controlled manner according to prescribed dose.
“Bormioli Pharma is looking for a new product capable of containing and dispensing oral drugs, particularly tablets and micro-tablets, in a controlled manner.
In the medical field, there are different types of prescription that require accurate dosage of the drug, but at the same time need to be flexible according to the needs of the patient, i.e. modulating the amount of tablets according to age, weight and other variables.
The focus of the product will therefore be to improve patient adherence by maximising the match between the doctor’s prescription and the drug actually taken by the patient.” - Desall.com
