One of the most advanced digital medication systems in Scandinavia is redefining how patients and healthcare professionals interact with daily medication routines. Developed just outside Oslo, this fully integrated solution combines intuitive design, smart sensors, and seamless cellular connectivity to deliver greater safety, efficiency, and user experience.

The result: better control, fewer errors, and more time for care. Behind the scenes, a robust mobile network infrastructure ensures real-time responsiveness, so all the user experiences are medication-ready, precisely when it’s needed.

Reimagining Medication Management

This digital medication platform was developed to simplify and safeguard the daily lives of elderly individuals, people with chronic illnesses, and the professionals who support them. It blends industrial design expertise with deep healthcare insight to create a solution that fits naturally into both home and clinical environments, while meeting certified medical device standards.

After several years of development, the system is already in use across multiple municipalities and is now preparing for broader deployment.

Addressing a Critical Healthcare Challenge

Medication management is one of the most resource-intensive tasks in care services. Many current approaches rely on outdated manual routines, with a high risk of errors, limited traceability, and inefficient workflows. Nearly half of all medications are taken incorrectly, and millions of healthcare visits each week are made just to handle pill dispensing.

Additionally, many existing devices are unintuitive or stigmatizing in their appearance, rendering them unsuitable for real-life environments.

A Complete, User-Friendly Digital Solution

This new system offers an end-to-end digital approach, powered by reliable mobile connectivity:

  • Digitally tagged cassettes: Each one is securely linked to an individual patient.
  • Smart dispenser: Reads the tag, dispenses the correct dose at the right time, and provides alerts in case of anomalies.
  • Live cellular connection: Real-time updates and remote adjustments by care providers via an intuitive dashboard.

The interface is so simple that both elderly users and children can operate it. With just one clear button and a soft light signal, users receive their medication dose in seconds. All updates are managed remotely, with medication plans adjusted and synchronized instantly.

IoT Connectivity at the Core

Uninterrupted connectivity is essential for real-time dosing, alerts, and system updates. Each device uses a global eSIM solution to connect over 750 mobile networks in 190 countries. Whether installed in remote areas or taken abroad, the system automatically selects the strongest available network—no configuration needed.

This ensures:

  • Reliability: Real-time operation with no delays.
  • Flexibility: Devices function anywhere, even when patients travel.
  • Scalability: Ready-to-use units shipped directly to users, without on-site setup.

Results That Matter

Real-world deployments are proving the system’s value for patients, providers, and public health goals alike:

  • Deployed in over 20 municipalities and expanding rapidly.
  • Designed and manufactured locally, with full control of production.
  • Improved patient safety with RFID-enabled dose verification.
  • Zero incorrect deliveries recorded to date.
  • Significant time savings per patient compared to legacy systems.
  • Medication plan updates reach users within 30 seconds.

By targeting one of the most labor-intensive aspects of healthcare, this solution directly contributes to national efficiency goals—and more importantly, to better care for those who need it most.
