Abstract: Generally people don’t know which medicine to take in and the use of that medicine as they end up taking wrongly. Also now a days the expiry dates of the medicine are not seen by most of the people as they have no time for all these. Mostly they forget to take medicines at times. So, there should be always a need of care takers as there is no auto medication system. These problems can be avoided in implementing the automated Medikit system which is RFID based. It indicates the medication which the patient should intake and provides the information about the name, use and the expiry date of the medicine. It displays the details as well as reads in voice also says about the count of the medicines. Heart beat and Glucose sensors are used and the values are automatically updated.
