See full text

A device detects the removal of drugs from a drug blister pack. The device has a base for receiving the drug blister pack and a base surface which is configured for contact with the electrically conducting foil that doses the pockets of the blister pack. In the region of the pockets, the base has holes that are configured for the passage of the drugs present in the pockets, every hole being arranged in the region of one of the pockets. A coil is arranged in the region of each of the holes and extends around the respective hole, in particular exclusively the respective hole. A detector unit is provided which produces an electrical field and/or magnetic field in the region of one or more holes by one of the coils and analyzes the voltage or the current on at least one of the coils extending around the hole.
