Patent Images
1. A device for contextual activation of a pharmaceutical comprising:
- an activation module configured to send a signal to activate a pharmaceutical;
a contextual engine module to;
receive a contextual input, the contextual input indicative of a context of a user;
determine, based upon the contextual input, that activation of a pharmaceutical in a user is indicated; and
cause the activation module to send the signal to activate the pharmaceutical responsive to determining that activation of the pharmaceutical in the user is indicated.

Abstract
Disclosed in some examples are methods, machine readable mediums, and systems for automatic activation of pharmaceutical agents using wearable devices in response to detecting one or more contexts of the user which indicate the need for pharmaceuticals. In some examples, a wearable device may emit signals to automatically release or activate drugs that are already in a user in response to a particular context of the user. For example, if the user begins vigorous exercise, the system may activate a pain medication that was already previously ingested by the user to alleviate anticipated joint pain.
