In today’s fast-moving lifestyle, access to basic medicines often becomes a challenge, especially during late hours or in emergency situations. Pharmacies may remain closed, or the nearest medical store might be too far to reach. This can cause unnecessary delays in treatment for minor health issues such as fever, headache, cold,sprains or small injuries.
QuickMed is a unique and smart vending machine designed to dispense basic OTC medicines and essential healthcare products like paracetamol, antiseptic creams, band-aids,volinis,crepe bangades, hand sanitizers, and masks. Installed in campuses, railway stations, hostels, and public places, the machine works through digital payment systems (UPI,credit/debit cards), ensuring 24/7 availability.
The system is connected to a central database that tracks stock levels and automatically notifies suppliers when refilling is needed. Medicines are organized in separate slots with QR/barcode scanning to prevent errors. Additionally, a small display provides dosage information and warnings to promote safe usage.
