Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are disclosed for administering a medicament to a patient. In one aspect, a system includes an injection pen device in wireless communication with a mobile communication device. The injection pen device includes a housing including a chamber to encase a cartridge containing medicine, a dose setting and dispensing mechanism to set the mechanism to dispense a particular dose of the medicine from the loaded cartridge, a sensor unit to detect a dispensed dose based on positions and/or movements of the dose setting and dispensing mechanism, and an electronics unit in communication with the sensor unit to process the detected dispensed dose and time data associated with a dispensing event and to wirelessly transmit the dose data to a user's device. The mobile communication device provides a software application to provide the user with health information using the processed dose data.

Abstract: Intelligent (smart) tracking accessories for a medicine dispensing device, such as an injection pen or pen device, are described. A smart tracking accessory in the form of a smart cap for a medicine dispensing device, such as an insulin pen, is configured to protect the needle of the dispensing device and the medicine contained therein when the device is not in use. The smart cap may detect the presence of the medicine dispensing device, detect an activation event such as removal from the medicine dispensing device, inform the user whether it is safe to administer a therapeutic dose of medicine, and log occurrence of the dosing event.
