Taking pills may soon be a thing of the past. its breathtaking what engineers are inventing. Scientists are working to develop a microchip that can be preloaded with medication and inserted into the body. people will no longer have to remember to take their pills because the microchip will automatically dispense the medication at the right time. A doctor would be able to adjust the dose or stop it altogether by remote control. This is a great new technology in the healthcare industry because there’s a lot of people who forget to take their pills or refuse to take them which causes life-threatening situations. By having a microchip giving them their dose of medication eliminates that aspect. I don’t know how I would feel having a microchip implanted into my body. I would want to make sure that the microchip wont have any defects that will release too much medication into my body. I would also want to know if the chip being in my body will cause any health problems like an infection.
