The protection of pharmaceutical products from temperature-related damage and contamination is a crucial challenge faced by the healthcare industry. Variations in storage conditions can have a significant impact on the efficacy and shelf life of medications, and identifying such fluctuations is of utmost importance. In this regard, the present study aims to develop a cost-effective and efficient temperature monitoring system for medicines using the Embedded systems platform. The DS18B20 sensor was utilized to record the temperature profile signal, and a warning system was designed to alert the warehouse administrator in the event of any temperature fluctuations. The results of the study revealed a stable temperature profile within the medicine warehouse, and the warning system successfully notified the administrator whenever the temperature exceeded the user-defined threshold. These findings hold significant implications for future research exploring the potential of additional sensors for temperature monitoring purposes. Overall, the study highlights the importance of temperature monitoring systems in ensuring the integrity and efficacy of medications. The proposed system holds considerable promise for implementation in healthcare settings, where a maintaining optimal storage condition is critical for preserving the quality and safety of pharmaceutical products.
