Protomed is developer and supplier of the Biodoseâ„¢ monitored dosage system and the Biodose Connectâ„¢ telehealth medication adherence solution. Biodose is the only monitored dosage tray system on the market to accommodate both liquid and solid medication. The Biodose system is used by over 50 thousand patients within care homes, and in the community, serviced by our comprehensive network of pharmacies in the UK and in Ireland. A full explanation of our Biodose tray and supporting paperwork is on our website at www.biodose.co.uk. Our telehealth medication adherence solution, Biodose Connectâ„¢, provides real time feedback on a patient's adherence to their solid dose or liquid medication; thus allowing caregivers, healthcare professionals or a monitoring service to monitor and intervene when necessary. The supporting software stores and presents the patient's adherence data via a secure online dashboard. Biodose Connect is a Medical Device and is aimed at patients who are managing their own medicines but struggling with adherence, and can be utilised in a range of patient groups including: elderly/vulnerable, early stage dementia and mental health. It is also particularly useful for patients taking very expensive medication, or where the consequences of poor adherence are more severe. Based on research with key stakeholders within Social and NHS groups, we believe that Biodose Connect could help to: reduce social care costs; reduce unplanned admissions and visits to A&E; reduce re-admissions after discharge; prevent treatment escalation and provide reassurance in a private pay model. The medication is securely dispensed and sealed into Biodose trays by our established network of supplying pharmacies.
