    摘要: Prescription medications, especially opioids, are often abused. The present invention provides a pill dispensing device that is designed to reduce misuse, diversion, and pilfering or prescribed opioids or other medications that may require regulated dispensing. The device of the present invention securely holds a repository of pills and dispenses a single pill only after the allotted prescribed time interval and only after verification of the correct user through the biometric ID device. The dispensing device includes a locked tamper-resistant outer housing, a biometric ID device, a display for alerting the user to critical information, (such as time to the next pill and number of pills remaining) and a secure mechanical pill dispensing mechanism.
