Hi all,
Apologies in advance if the topic or wording is too invasive.
I am a final year Mechanical Engineering student studying at Sheffield Hallam University.
I have developed a new concept for a pill dispenser, but in order to better the concept, I am after an idea of how many tablets someone suffering with dementia take on a daily basis.
These could be tablets specifically for dementia, or for other conditions.
If anyone could provide information to the following four questions, it would be much appreciated;
1) How many tablets (roughly) are taken daily?
2) At what intervals are these tablets taken?
3) Due to the symptoms of dementia, does the sufferer ever forgot to take their medication?
4) What form is the medication in? i.e. tablets, injections etc.
Thanks in advance,
Joe.
