Abstract: In the present paper describe how to build a microcontroller based smart medicine time indication box. This medicine box is help for user who regularly take drugs or supplements and also nurses who take care of the older or patients. The medicine box is programmable that allows nurses or users to specify the pill quantity and day to take pills, and the serve times for each day.

When the pill quantity and time have been set, the medicine box will remind users or patients to take pills using sound and light. The specific number of pills needs to be taken will be displayed by a seven segment led display placed on the corresponding sub-box.
